A man has eleven daughters and seven sons. He gave the daughters a farm, but he did not give the sons anything?The Shaykh: Are the sons adults or minors?The questioner: Yes, they are adults, O Shaykh.
The Shaykh: Did they consent to this?The questioner: He is still alive up to now.
The Shaykh: I am asking: Did they consent?Meaning: Did he say to them: "My sons, I have given your sisters so much and so much. Do you consent or not?"The questioner: They consented.
The Shaykh: Of their own free will?The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh: There is nothing in it.
The questioner: So what is the sons' share in the estate?
The Shaykh: No, when he dies, the estate will be divided according to the shares prescribed by Allah.
