Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, this questioner from Morocco says: Many of the Muslim men in our country, Morocco, do not pray, and some of them insult the religion. Do they have a right to inheritance?

Answer:
The rule is that an apostate does not inherit and is not inherited from; this is the rule. However, this is subject to the judgment of the Shari'ah judge in the matter.
