Inheritance and Murder

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W) taught that murderers will not be able to inherit anything.

Abu Hurairah narrated that the Prophet(S.A.W) said: "The murderer will not inherit".
حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، قال: حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ حُمَيْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ قَالَ ‏ "‏ الْقَاتِلُ لاَ يَرِثُ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ لاَ يَصِحُّ وَلاَ يُعْرَفُ إِلاَّ مِنْ هَذَا الْوَجْهِ ‏.‏ وَإِسْحَاقُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي فَرْوَةَ قَدْ تَرَكَهُ بَعْضُ أَهْلِ الْحَدِيثِ مِنْهُمْ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ حَنْبَلٍ ‏.‏ وَالْعَمَلُ عَلَى هَذَا عِنْدَ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ أَنَّ الْقَاتِلَ لاَ يَرِثُ كَانَ الْقَتْلُ عَمْدًا أَوْ خَطَأً ‏.‏ وَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ إِذَا كَانَ الْقَتْلُ خَطَأً فَإِنَّهُ يَرِثُ وَهُوَ قَوْلُ مَالِكٍ

Respect life/property rights , Follow Islamic principles of justice & mercy towards others .

EXPLANATIONS:
The Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W) taught that those who commit murder will not be able to inherit anything from the deceased person they murdered, or from anyone else for that matter. This is because it is a major sin in Islam and it goes against the teachings of the Quran and Sunnah which forbid taking someone's life unjustly, as well as taking something without permission or right to do so. This hadith serves as a reminder for us all to stay away from any kind of violence, especially murder, and instead focus on living our lives according to Islamic principles of justice and mercy towards others.
