Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: A man excluded all his sons from inheritance and gave it to only one son. Is this money considered forbidden for this son? And does the son sin if he disposes of it?
Answer:
Yes, it is forbidden for him. A father has no right to bequeath more than one-third, or less, in a will. He has no right to bequeath more than one-third, or less. He does not bequeath to an heir; he bequeaths to a non-heir. An heir is not to be bequeathed to; his inheritance is sufficient for him. Yes.
