Inheritance of the children of a freed slave from the freed slave

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, do the children of a freed slave inherit from the freed slave?

The Shaykh:
The children of the freed slave.

The questioner:
Do they inherit from the freed slave?

The Shaykh:
No. How so, the children of the freed slave? The children of the freed slave, yes, they occupy the position of the freed slave. His male children occupy his position. So the inheritance of the freed slave goes to his manumitter. Then, after the manumitter, it goes to his 'asabah (residuary male heirs) who are 'asabah by themselves, not by others and not with others. Only 'asabah by themselves inherit from the freed slave, excluding 'asabah by others or with others. Yes.
