نظام الإرث في الإسلام

نظام الإرث في الإسلام

Al-Bahi reads the Islamic inheritance system as breaking up inherited wealth rather than keeping it whole: fixed shares stated in fractions prevent accumulation and push heirs to work (pp. 135-136). He contrasts it with a European system that kept a title and estate in one heir's hand (p. 137). On bequests he reads the hadith 'no bequest to an heir' as a rule against shifting wealth back toward heirs, and holds that the bequest stops at one third, citing the report of Sa'd ibn Abi Waqqas (pp. 140, 142). These are the author's readings.
