The Ruling on an Agent Delaying the Distribution of Inheritance and Trading with It
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
My brother is our agent after our father passed away. He has the inheritance, but he never gives us any of it. He keeps saying, "Wait, wait," while he trades with the amount he inherited, which our father left for us. What is the ruling on this action?
Answer:
This action is not permissible. You should go to the court before the judge and file a lawsuit against him. The judge will summon him and compel him to divide the inheritance. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
