The questioner : A man borrowed a sum of money from his daughter and informed his children of this, and this man has passed away. Does the daughter have the right to claim her due, or does her money become the property of her father?
The Shaykh : The daughter has the right to claim what her father owes her, because her father took it from her not as a transfer of ownership, but as a loan, and he acknowledged it to her. Therefore, when he dies, it is obligatory that this be paid from his estate first, and then the daughter shares with her siblings in the inheritance that Allah has prescribed for her. Yes.
The questioner : May Allah reward you. This is a student in a school who says.
