Q:
My father died and left behind a garden. He left a stepmother who has no children. After the death of our father, the stepmother married another man; does she have the right to inherit this garden?
(Part No. 16; Page No. 504) Does she have the right to inherit from the revenue of the garden?
A:
She has the right to inherit from all properties that your father left because she has one-eighth of the inheritance if your father has no other wives. This ruling shall be applicable whether the estate was sold or used like the mentioned garden. She will have one-eighth of the sold properties or one-eighth of the revenue after paying the debts of your father and executing his will. May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
