Distribution of the value of an inherited car among the heirs
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
One of the brothers says: I bought a heavy equipment vehicle with my father for 123,000 riyals. It was my father's money, and I registered it in my name so I could work with it and return its value to him. He says: My father passed away before Ramadan this year. I put the equipment up for sale, and it was sold for 140,000 riyals. He asks: Do I return only 123,000 riyals to my brothers, the heirs, or do I give them the full amount for which it was sold?
The Shaykh:
This is according to the inheritance rules. You pay the heir who inherits from your father his share. Yes.
The questioner:
But you give him the same amount his father gave him, 123,000, because it was later sold for a higher price.
The Shaykh:
The price for which it was sold, not the price set by the father, but the price for which it was sold. Yes.
The presenter:
Yes, may Allah bless you.
