The place of burial for a deceased person when his will and his mother's wish differ

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: There is a sick brother who willed to his wife that if he dies, he should be buried in his village, but his mother wants him to be buried in another place. So who takes precedence if he dies?

Answer:
It is all permissible, and praise be to Allah. He is buried with the Muslims in any place, and praise be to Allah. Yes.
