Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
We say, Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success: If a person’s marriage is invalid, but intercourse and entry have taken place,
The Shaykh:
What was it?
The questioner:
If a person’s marriage is invalid, but intercourse and entry have taken place, does inheritance occur between them or not?
The Shaykh:
No. A defective or invalid contract is not valid, and no inheritance results from it. As for the children, they are attributed to the man who had intercourse with the woman because of the resemblance, in order to preserve lineage. As for inheritance, no. Yes.
