The obligation of one who caused a person to be deprived of his inheritance
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: We sold a piece of land of four qirats to my cousin, but he asked us to write him a sale contract for eight qirats. The first four had been sold by my father to my uncle (may Allah have mercy on them both). We signed the contract for him so that his brothers would be deprived of their legal inheritance in the first four qirats. What should we do so that Allah forgives us, since we have deprived three people of their legal inheritance? May Allah reward you with good.
Answer:
You must inform them. If they forgive you, praise be to Allah. Otherwise, you must compensate them for what you wasted upon them. If they permit it, there is no harm. If they do not permit it, you give them the value of what you deprived them of and wasted upon them. Yes.
The presenter : May Allah reward you with good, and may He do you good.
