Question
My parents are non-Muslim. My father has left in his will a substantial sum of money for me. Does the Shariah permit me to accept this money?
Answer
Although there are no ties of inheritance between Muslims and non-Muslims, bequests are valid. You may accept the money your father has left for you.
