Buying and Selling: Ruling on Gifts Given to the Family of a Martyr by Friends

English:

Question #1480:

How should the presents given to the family of a martyr by his friends be treated? In other words, should they be regarded as part of his children’s property?

Answer #1480:

Once the shar‘ī guardian of the children has accepted the presents given to them, they become part of their property. Handling such property by others is dependent on the permission of the guardian.
