The Heirs' Delay in Executing the Bequest After the Death of the Beneficiary
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Zayd bequeathed one hundred camels to 'Amr. After the testator's death, the heirs delayed executing the bequest until the beneficiary died. Do the beneficiary's heirs have the right to take what the testator bequeathed to him?
Answer:
This case goes to the court. They go to the court and prove the bequest and prove that the heirs delayed and prevented it. They establish this, and once they have established it, the court looks into the matter. As for us, we are unable to rule on this issue in the absence of the parties and the disputants. Yes. And Allah the Exalted knows best, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad.
