Question:
From the perspective of studying the science of inheritance, is it specific to the group? Or is studying this not obligatory?
Answer:
Answer: Studying the science of inheritance, like all other types of knowledge, is a collective obligation. If a sufficient number of people undertake it, the sin is lifted from the rest. If everyone neglects it, they all sin. People are in need of the science of inheritance because it concerns estates and the rights of heirs. It is a great science that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) encouraged learning. Allah detailed the rulings of inheritance in His Noble Book in Surat al-Nisa, which indicates its importance and the obligation to care for it, given people’s need for it.
