Follow-up: If the heir knows that his deceased relative was consuming riba (usury or interest), is it permissible for him to take his share of the inheritance?

The Shaykh : Until now, we say to the heirs: Take the riba (usury or interest) from the one who owes it, but do not consume it. Give it in charity, or place it in mosques, on roads, or in charitable works. Do you understand? As for what has already been taken, the one who took it is the deceased, and the sin is upon him. As for what has not been taken, it is not permissible for the heirs to take it for themselves; rather, they take it in order to spend it on charitable works. Someone might ask: Why do they take it, for example, when it is riba (usury or interest)? We say: Because this usurer who paid the riba (usury or interest) proceeded with it, accepted it, and dealt with it, so we do not allow him to benefit from the money for that period and also benefit from the riba (usury or interest). We say: We take the riba (usury or interest) and give it, placing it in public interests. If they see that it is in the public interest to leave the riba (usury or interest) as it is, such as if the debtor is poor, then they do not take it at all. Do you understand now? Good.
