Question

A mufti says that in Kitaabul Meeraath published by Mujlisul Ulama, the mas‟alah regarding inheriting from a murtad is incorrect. According to this mufti, only the portion of his wealth which was earned whilst he was still a Muslim will be inherited by his heirs, not the amount he earned while he was a murtad. Is this correct?

Answer

The Fatwa of our Math-hab is on the ruling of Saahibain (Imaam Abu Yusuf and Imaam Muhammad - Rahmatullah alayhima). The view stated in our Kitaabul Meeraath is correct.
