The Ruling on the Deceased Person's Salary and Pension in Inheritance

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. The questioner asks: Is the salary of a deceased person considered inheritance?

Answer:
Yes, his salary is part of his wealth; its acquisition is from his earnings. Or if you mean the pension, the pension is not inheritance. The pension is formulated by the state for certain people, such as relatives, due to their need for it. The pension is not inheritance, but the wealth he acquired during his life, all of it is inheritance, including salaries and other things. Yes.
