QUICK LESSONS:
Follow the rules set by Prophet Muhammad regarding sharing wealth/property after death with fairness and justice for all involved parties regardless of their religious beliefs or lack thereof .

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith explains that according to the Prophet Muhammad, a Muslim is not allowed to inherit anything from an infidel, nor is an infidel allowed to inherit anything from a Muslim. This means that if one person in the family is a believer in Islam and another person is not, then they are not allowed to share any inheritance between them. This rule applies even if the two people are related by blood or marriage. The Prophet Muhammad wanted to ensure that no one was taking advantage of someone else's faith or lack thereof when it comes to sharing wealth or property after death. He also wanted to make sure that no one was using their religion as a way of manipulating others for their own gain. By setting this rule, he ensured fairness and justice for all involved parties regardless of their religious beliefs or lack thereof.
