Q 1:
How do we pay off the debt of the deceased if he just indicated that he is indebted but did not identify the creditor or clarify the size of the debt?
A 1:
When a person before death had mentioned that he had a debt but he did not name the creditor or specify the amount of the debt, it is obligatory in this case to announce in the press that whoever claims a debt from so and so should approach his deputy or his heirs. Whoever comes with proof of a debt owed by the deceased, this debt should be cleared from the estate of the deceased.May Allah grant us success. May Peace and Blessings of Allah be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family and companions!
