Depriving the incompetent heir of his share and placing him under guardianship
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: If there is a fear that one of the heirs will ruin his share of the inheritance, or spend it recklessly or in open sinfulness, is it permissible to deprive him of it until he matures?
Answer:
It is not permissible to deprive him, but the money is preserved. The money is preserved, and a guardian is appointed to preserve the money for him. This is what is called placing him under guardianship. He is placed under guardianship if he ruins his money or destroys his money.
