This hadith talks about the importance of giving shares and inheritance to those who are entitled to it. It is narrated by Ibn Abbas that Allah's Messenger said that one should give the rightful shares of inheritance or any other thing they are entitled to. Whatever remains after this should be given to the nearest male heir. This hadith teaches us that we must always give people their due rights and not take away from them what they deserve. We must also ensure that whatever is left over goes into the hands of someone who deserves it as well.
