Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, is the private library of a student of knowledge in his home part of the knowledge that benefits him after his death?

Answer:
If he endows it, then it is part of the knowledge that he hears, but if he does not endow it, it belongs to the heirs.
