The Transfer of Loyalty to the Residuary Heirs of the Freed Slave
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
And the Shari'ah says: What about the difference in age? Does the obligation of maintenance transfer to his descendants?
Answer:
It transfers to his residuary heirs who are heirs by their own right, not through others and not with others. It transfers to his residuary heirs by their own person, not to residuary heirs through others. They are the daughters and the sisters with their brothers, and not with others, such as the sisters with the daughters. It does not transfer to these; it only transfers to a specific type of residuary heir, namely the residuary heir by his own person.
