Question:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

My question is that my sister found money in her husband’s house ( joint family) twice 5000 and than 2500. Her husband has two brothers and the relationship of her husband and her with her father in law is not good. She knew the money belonged to her father in law but couldn’t give it because he would blame her that she stole from him. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Now her father in law passed away. What should she do with the money totalling 7500.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Answer:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Allah (SWT) mentions in Surah Al-Nisa, verse 58, the following:<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cIndeed, Allah commands you to return trusts to their [rightful] owners\u2026\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In addition, the Prophet (saw) is reported to have said, in a narration found in Sunan al-Timirdhi:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

“<\/span>\u0639\u064e\u0644\u064e\u0649<\/span> \u0627\u0644\u0652\u064a\u064e\u062f\u0650<\/span> \u0645\u064e\u0627<\/span> \u0623\u064e\u062e\u064e\u0630\u064e\u062a\u0652<\/span> \u062d\u064e\u062a\u0651\u064e\u0649<\/span> \u062a\u064f\u0624\u064e\u062f\u0651\u0650\u064a\u064e<\/span>”\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cUpon the hand is [the responsibility of] that which it took, until it returns it [to its rightful owner].\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The $7500 your sister holds is a trust. [1]<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The money was unfortunately not distributed as part of your sister\u2019s father-in-law\u2019s inheritance, owning to the fact that he was unaware of this wealth.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Though he has passed on, it still remains an obligation, as we know with certainty that it belonged to him.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The Prophet (saw) said:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

“<\/span>\u0648\u0645\u064e\u0646\u0652<\/span> \u062a\u064e\u0631\u064e\u0643\u064e<\/span> \u0645\u064e\u0627\u0644\u0627\u064b<\/span> \u0641\u064e\u0644\u0650\u0648\u064e\u0631\u064e\u062b\u064e\u062a\u0650\u0647\u0650<\/span>”\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cWhoever dies and leaves behind wealth, then [that wealth] is for his heirs.\u201d (<\/span>\u0627\u062e\u0631\u062c\u0647<\/span> \u0627\u0644\u0628\u062e\u0627\u0631\u064a<\/span> \u0662\u0662\u0669\u0668<\/span> \u0648<\/span> \u0645\u0633\u0644\u0645<\/span>\u00a0 <\/span>\u0661\u0666\u0661\u0669<\/span>)<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

As such, the $7500 would need to be returned to the nearest male relative so that they may re-distribute the amount accordingly amongst the heirs. [2][3]<\/span><\/p>\n
