(Book 27, Hadith 10) #36154
Inheritance of Muslims and Non-Muslims

SUMMARY: A Muslim does not inherit from a non-Muslim.

Yahya related to me from Malik from Ibn Shihab from Ali ibn Husayn ibn Ali from Umar ibn Uthman ibn Affan from Usama ibn Zayd that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "A muslim does not inherit from a kafir".
حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ حُسَيْنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ، عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عَفَّانَ، عَنْ أُسَامَةَ بْنِ زَيْدٍ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ ‏ "‏ لاَ يَرِثُ الْمُسْلِمُ الْكَافِرَ

QUICK LESSONS:
Respect others' beliefs regardless if you agree with them or not; Be aware of your own rights; Treat everyone equally regardless of religion/beliefs

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the inheritance rights of Muslims and non-Muslims. According to this hadith, a Muslim does not have the right to inherit anything from a non-Muslim. This means that if someone who is not a Muslim passes away and leaves behind any property or wealth, then their property or wealth cannot be inherited by any Muslims in their family or outside of it. This teaching is important because it ensures that people are aware of their rights when it comes to inheritance matters and also helps protect the rights of those who are not Muslims in society. It also serves as an important reminder for all people that they should respect each other's beliefs regardless of whether they agree with them or not.
