بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِیْمِ

4.8

وَ اِذَا حَضَرَ الْقِسْمَةَ اُولُوا الْقُرْبٰى وَ الْیَتٰمٰى وَ الْمَسٰكِیْنُ فَارْزُقُوْهُمْ مِّنْهُ وَ قُوْلُوْا لَهُمْ قَوْلًا مَّعْرُوْفًا(8)

Kanz-ul-Irfan

If relatives, orphans, and the destitute (masākīn) are present when the distribution ˹of inheritance˺ takes place, give them from it,[1] and speak to them with courtesy.

Commentary

[1]

To give some wealth to those who are not inheritors from inheritance is desirable; this can be done if a grandfather expresses a will (to give money) for his orphan grandson or inheritors give something from their share. This ruling is rarely fulfilled in this era; remember, giving from the share of a child (who has not reached puberty) or an absent inheritor is not permitted.
