The Muslim's Inheritance from His Disbelieving Parents

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: My parents are disbelievers, so do I inherit from them if they die?

Answer:
No, a Muslim does not inherit from a disbeliever, nor does a disbeliever inherit from a Muslim; neither inherits from the other. Yes.
