Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, I live in a non-Muslim country, and there they do not divide the inheritance according to the method of the Book and the Sunnah, but rather they divide it equally. Is it permissible for me to take my share in this way?
Answer:
Do not take anything except what Allah has prescribed for you, and as for what is more than that, do not take it, because it is not yours. Take what Allah has prescribed for you. Yes.
