Sunan Ibn Majah 2729 (Book 23, Hadith 11) #32083
Inheritance between Muslims and Non-Muslims

SUMMARY: A Muslim cannot inherit from a non-Muslim and vice versa.

It was narrated from Usamah bin Zaid, who attributed it to the Prophet : "The Muslim does not inherit from a disbeliever and the disbeliever does not inherit from a Muslim".
حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الصَّبَّاحِ، قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ عُثْمَانَ، عَنْ أُسَامَةَ بْنِ زَيْدٍ، رَفَعَهُ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ قَالَ ‏ "‏ لاَ يَرِثُ الْمُسْلِمُ الْكَافِرَ وَلاَ الْكَافِرُ الْمُسْلِمَ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the rules of inheritance between Muslims and non-Muslims. It was narrated by Usamah bin Zaid, who attributed it to the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). The essence of this hadith is that a Muslim cannot inherit from a non-Muslim, nor can a non-Muslim inherit from a Muslim. This rule applies to all types of inheritance, including money, property, or any other assets. The reason for this rule is that Islam encourages believers to keep their wealth within their own community so that it can be used for the benefit of fellow believers. Additionally, this rule prevents any potential disputes or arguments over who should receive what in an inheritance case.
