Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Your fatherly eminence, what is the status of the hadiths encouraging the study of inheritance law?
Answer:
They are weak, but learning inheritance law is among the most important sciences. The hadiths regarding the learning of inheritance law are weak. The hadith: "Knowledge is three things: a clear verse, an established Sunnah, and a just inheritance share." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) taught the Ummah in the Qur'an and clarified for them the rulings of inheritance.
So learning inheritance law is among the greatest of the beneficial sciences, among the greatest of the sciences of Islam. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Sahih Muslim 2699a. So the knowledge of inheritance is among the greatest of the beneficial sciences, among the beneficial sciences of Islam that all people need, and weak hadiths are strengthened by authentic hadiths.
