Question
The heirs have inherited a property. They want to give their shares to their mother who also has her share in the property. Is it permissible? Must cash be involved?
Answer
The asset for distribution to the heirs is a fixed property. It is not incumbent to sell a property if the heirs desire to retain it. Hence, their shares are confirmed in the property. Possession is signified by freedom the heirs have to do with their shares as they deem fit. There is no need for cash to be involved in this case.
