What is the method for distributing an inheritance of gold among the children?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: The father passed away and left behind gold. One of his children appraised the gold in the market and paid each of the heirs his share in money. The heirs refused the money and asked him to distribute the gold. What is the correct course of action?

Answer:
Yes, this is the correct course of action: the gold is to be distributed. He has no right to dispose of the estate or the people's money without their permission. The gold is distributed, and each person takes his share from it. Whoever is content to take the value takes the value, and whoever says, "No, I will take the gold," is given his share of the gold. Yes.
