Lesson
Hereditary
of Husband and wife have been described in this verse. That is to say, the
husband will take half from the wealth of his wife, on the condition that, the
woman has no child. But if the woman has some children, either from her present
husband or any previous, then her husband will be given fourth of that which
she leaves. However, before distribution of the hereditary, any legacy she may
have bequeathed, or debt, which she may have contracted, shall be paid first.
Like
this, the wife will get fourth of that which her husband leaves, provided that
the husband has no child, whether from this wife or any other woman. Otherwise,
she will get eighth of that which he will leave after payment of any legacy he
may has bequeathed, or debt he may has contracted.
Every
kind of property and wealth will be included in the inheritance, whether that
is cash or articles, moveable or unmovable, ornaments or bars of precious
metals and houses or gardens. But the money or its value incumbent on her
husband; will be counted in the debt.
These Rules of Allah Almighty about the
hereditary are quite full with wisdom and advisability. Our success is hidden
in accepting them and acting upon them.
