Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, if a lease contract is completed and then one of the parties dies, what is the ruling of the contract with respect to the heirs?
Answer:
The contract is binding and remains in effect, and the lessee continues until the term expires; because he owns the benefit by virtue of the contract, the death of the lessor does not affect it until the term ends. Yes.
