فَمَنْ خَافَ مِن مُّوصٍ جَنَفًا أَوْ إِثْمًا فَأَصْلَحَ بَيْنَهُمْ فَلَآ إِثْمَ عَلَيْهِ ۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ غَفُورٌ رَّحِيمٌ ﴿182﴾

Translation by Dr. Muhammad Muhsin Khan & Dr. Taqi-ud-Din al-Hilali

But he who fears from a testator some unjust act or wrong-doing, and thereupon he makes peace between the parties concerned, there shall be no sin on him. Certainly, Allâh is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.

182. 1. The meaning of جَنَفًا (inclination) is to, by mistake or forgetfulness, incline more towards one relative and thereby deprive others of their rights, and by اثمًا is meant to do so deliberately, thus referring to a sinful bequest, the changing of which and that the correction must be acted upon. From this, it is understood that it is essential to maintain justice and fairness in a bequest; otherwise, committing injustice even while departing from this world is extremely dangerous from the perspective of salvation in the Hereafter.

182. But if anyone fears partiality or wrongdoing on the part of the testator and brings about reconciliation among the parties, then there is no sin upon him [228]. Surely, Allah is Most Forgiving, Most Merciful.

[228] However, if it becomes known that the deceased made a mistake in the will, whether it was intentional or unintentional, or he showed partiality towards someone, then it can be changed with the consultation of the heirs. In fact, the guardian or authorized heir must make such an amendment. In this way, it is possible that Allah Almighty may also forgive the sin of the one who made the will.
