181. Then whoever changes the will after hearing it, its sin shall be upon those who alter it [227]. Surely, Allah is All-Hearing, All-Knowing.
[227] That is, if the deceased made a just bequest, but any authorized heir alters or annuls it, or several heirs together make changes to it, then all of them will be sinful, and Allah Almighty is the Hearer of such selfish people's words and Knower even of their intentions.
