Question
My father bequeathed some wealth to one of his poor friends. Incidentally that friend died before the father. A few days later my father also died. Now the heirs of that friend are claiming the property of the will. Is their claim valid in the eyes of the law? 5194938279
Answer
- حامداومصلياومسلما، بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم -
In order for the will to be effective, the condition for which the will is made at the time of death of the testator is the condition of survival. If he dies before the testator, then the will is void. In the case in question, the will has been annulled since your father (the testator) died before that friend (for whom the testament was made) died. Thus it is not lawful for his heirs to claim the property of the will. 6579583179
