On His saying, the Exalted: “After a bequest he may make or a debt.”
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : His saying, the Exalted: [An-Nisa 4:11] The bequest here is absolute, yet you have restricted it by what is reported in the Sunnah, the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): ?
The Shaykh : No, it is taken from the verse[Al-Baqarah 2:229] because the one who makes a bequest to an heir has given him more than what Allah has prescribed for him, and that is transgressing the limits of Allah.
after any bequest he [may have] made or debt
من بعد وصية يوصي بها أو دين ...There is no bequest for an heir
لا وصية لوارثThe Shaykh : No, it is taken from the verse
