May God bless you. The way you explain is really commendable. It is really a tiring task but the love for truth motivate people like you to continue their search. May ALLAH guide me too.
Laws reflect the moral ethos of the society. Laws cannot be written to change or direct the moral ethos of a society. As a fellow lawyer this observation really resonated with me, Sheikh! Thank you! I really appreciated how you came at this question from many different angles! The now-retired Imam at my local US masjid was always happy to discuss such matters in depth with humor and an open mind. Perhaps in part due to my legal training, I love discussing these topics in depth!
Assalamu Alaikum, I was hoping that Shaykh would shine some light on this issue where due to a change in society what was a ground breaking change to deliver justice and fairness in wealth distribution, if used in its literalist form in this age delivers injustice/inequality and is a form of suppression. How do we apply the rule of distribution between a brother and a sister given that social context of the brother being legally responsible for the sister's wellbeing does not exist?
4 cases men inherit more than woman; 11 cases equal inheritance; 14 cases women inherit more; 5 cases women inherit and men don't Need to understand the situations or have this large chart that explains it. Most are aware of only the instances where men inherit more than women.
It would be good to understand how often the other scenarios pan out in a society. I'd assume that the distribution amongst siblings is the most common scenario.
@@Abdullah-london yes ! but i think its allowed for the father or mother to give extra money to the duaghter if she really needs it. also i would say that often in islamic countries people think cousins have a direct right to inhertiance but this is false they come at the last
