The Ruling on Inheriting from Distant Relatives

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
In the absence of close relatives. On this basis, she is a fixed-share heir.

The Shaykh:
According to the correct view. Yes, she is not among the distant relatives. Her share is limited here according to the well-known opinion in the school of jurisprudence, meaning. May Allah guide you. Yes. May Allah forgive you. There is no report tracing the inheritance of the maternal aunt to the Prophet. It was reported that the maternal uncle is an heir, or not an heir, and the paternal uncle is the same. Yes. How does the hadith answer the question of those who do not inherit? Yes. How does it come regarding those who do not inherit?

The questioner:
Hajar Khalid, may Allah bless you.

The Shaykh:
I do not know, by Allah, I do not know. Malik and al-Layth, but it is denied. One might look into its rejection and say it may be fabricated or weak. This is the first one, and the hadith is authentic; I accept it, there is no harm in it. Yes.
