Discussion on the inheritance of the Prophets.
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : As for the topic of this gathering, before this interruption, it is "the inheritance of the Prophets". The Prophets (peace and blessings be upon them) do not leave an inheritance. Even if they left behind great wealth, their relatives would not inherit it, based on the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): Sahih Muslim 1759a This is part of the wisdom of Allah, because if a Prophet were to leave an inheritance, the fabricators and liars would say: "This one wants to accumulate wealth to be inherited by those after him." But they do not leave an inheritance. As for the saying of Allah the Exalted: [Maryam 19:5-6] the intended meaning is the inheritance of knowledge and prophethood, as evidenced by His saying: [Maryam 19:6] It is well known that a person does not inherit material wealth except from his father, so this is an inheritance of knowledge.
