Disposing of the wealth a father left without specifying its destination
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: His father passed away some time ago and left a small amount of money. He did not specify in his will how it should be spent, but rather entrusted it all to the agent. The heirs also waived an additional amount. So where should he put it? Should he put it in a sacrifice or in a mosque?
Answer:
He should refer this matter to the court. Wills and endowments fall under the jurisdiction of the Shari'ah courts, so he should consult the judge regarding this. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
