Explanation & Benefits
Maulana Ataullah Sajid
Benefits and Issues:
➊
This is also a form of wala’ (loyalty) that a non-Muslim accepts Islam at the hands of a Muslim.
The other relatives of this new Muslim, being non-Muslim, cannot be his heirs; therefore, the one who brought him to Islam will be his heir.
➋
If the new Muslim has other Muslim heirs, then they will inherit his estate. However, if those heirs are entitled to fixed shares (ashab al-furud) and he has no Muslim agnatic (asaba) relatives, then the one who brought him to Islam will become his agnatic heir and inherit from him.
And Allah knows best.
