Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: Does a child born of zina inherit, and does he bequeath?

Answer:
A child born of zina is attributed to his mother. He inherits from his mother, and his mother inherits from him. As for his father, he has no father and no residuary male heirs. Yes.
