A man saying: This is my wealth that I inherited from my fathers

Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. Mujahid (may Allah have mercy on him) said: A man says, "This is my wealth that I inherited from my fathers." If he believes that it is from Allah alone, but he is merely mentioning the means by which he obtained it, is there any harm in this?

Answer:
No. If his intention is that he inherited it from his fathers, and if you were to ask him, "Where did this wealth come from? Did you earn it, or did you inherit it?" and he said, "No, this is from inheritance," that is a statement of fact, and there is nothing wrong with it. It is a statement of fact, and there is nothing wrong with saying, "I inherited this house from my fathers" or "I inherited this car from my father." This falls under the category of informing, meaning, "I did not buy it, nor did I acquire it; rather, it is from my father's inheritance." There is no harm in that. However, if you attribute the favor to your father, if you attribute the favor and the blessing to your father, that is what is to be avoided. Yes.
