The questioner : Is it permissible for the deceased's family to use the deceased's clothes?
The Shaykh : Yes, when the deceased dies, everything he owns belongs to the heirs, including clothes, furnishings, books, writing instruments, and whatever else, such as the shemagh and ghutrah he was wearing. All of it passes to the heirs.
Once it passes to the heirs, they dispose of it as they dispose of their own wealth. If any of the heirs, while acting as guardians, give the deceased's clothes to one of them to wear, there is nothing wrong with that. If they agree to give it in charity, there is nothing wrong with that. If they agree to sell it, there is nothing wrong with that. It is their property, and they dispose of it as owners dispose of their property. Yes.
