Ask your father about his parents inheritance today.....

Recently, I learned about a situation involving one of my family relatives in Pakistan. After their parents passed away, the brothers simply distributed and sold the family properties without giving any portion to the sisters. During the entire legal process of handling the property matters, they did not even ask for or inform the sisters.

* Dear Parents, I have some advice for all parents who are still alive. If you are capable, please leave a legal will in accordance with your islamic religious beliefs. Remember that once we depart this world, we will have to face Allah (God). In this materialistic world, where we are busy accumulating assets to provide for our children, those children may not even visit our graves after our death. Therefore, be wise and prepare to meet God. Even those who do not believe in God should still show faithfulness to the principles of justice and equity.

When distributing assets, be mindful of maintaining justice, just as we expect God's justice in every matter. All of our children were born to the same parents, experiencing the same upbringing and hardships. If one child is weaker or less successful in life, it does not mean the parents should disproportionately allocate more assets to that child compared to the others. If parents wish to gift any assets to a specific child, they should consider providing similar gifts to the other children to maintain harmony and fairness. Some parents judge their children based on factors such as obedience, presence, and contribution, and then distribute their assets accordingly. However, one must remember that God will ultimately deliver justice through His own means, whether through the trials of health or wealth. As parents, we can try to act as God's representatives on Earth, but there is a higher power that watches over us.

I have observed instances of parental injustice in the treatment of daughters versus sons, or vice versa. This imbalance is a core reason for the unbalanced state of society, leading to hatred between siblings, dishonesty, and materialistic conflicts. Instead of focusing solely on worldly matters at the end of one's life, it is crucial to consider the afterlife of heaven and hell. Strive to make everything right before departing this world. Consult a religious scholar to understand the legal issues and have a lawyer draft your will, so that your children do not fight or steal from one another. No single brother should be able to solely manage the parents' properties, excluding the daughters. Daughters have a rightful share in the assets, as decreed by Allah, not their brothers or parents.

*Dear Brothers, I would like to address all those brothers who believe they have the right to inherit everything because they are male, or because they cared for the parents, or because they are less privileged. Acquiring your sisters' share does not justify your actions but may instead incur Allah's wrath, bringing trouble upon you and your children. You are challenging God's decisions and trying to usurp His divine authority. If you pray five times a day but then attempt to prove God's commands wrong and act as a god on Earth, you are behaving like a devil. Remember the the word "KARMA". For the sake of your children's prosperity and peace, do not defy God's decree. Make all legal decisions correctly, even if your parents made mistakes in the past. Do not justify your actions based on your current circumstances, as each child is responsible for their own life.

*INHERITANCE refer to more than just lands and homes. They include everything that your parents purchased with their own money, such as gold, silver, diamonds, cars, homes, lands, defense certificates, bank accounts, worthy assets and more. You cannot simply give your sisters a small amount of money and keep all the other possessions for yourself. Allah will hold you accountable for everything, because those assets were not yours - you did not purchase them with your own money. Anything that your parents acquired with their own money should be equally distributed among their children, in accordance with Islamic teachings, unless the parents have explicitly gifted specific items to you.

You do not have the right to deprive your sisters of their rightful share in the family assets. Those belongings were accumulated by your parents, not earned by you. Allah will question you about how you handled the distribution of those possessions after your parents' passing. 

Trying to monopolize the entirety of your parents' wealth and leaving your sisters with only a token amount is a grave injustice. Islam prescribes clear guidelines on the fair division of inheritance, which you are obligated to follow. Your sisters have an equal claim to the assets, as they were born to the same parents and raised in the same household. Do not think that you can simply keep everything for yourself just because you are the SON. That is a selfish and un-Islamic mindset. 

Your parents worked hard to accumulate those possessions over the course of their lives for all children. The assets do not belong to you alone - they must be divided justly among all their children. Disregarding your sisters' rights is a grave sin that will incur Allah's displeasure and anger. Uphold the principles of fairness and fulfil your obligations as per the guidance of religion atleast for sake of your children. They will suffer for your deeds. Allah sees all, and will hold you accountable for your actions. Fulfill your religious duty by ensuring an equitable distribution of the inheritance, as per the teachings of your faith.

*Dear Sister, To all the girls in Pakistan, please educate yourselves about your legal rights. Reach out to lawyers or religious scholars to understand your rightful share in your parents' inheritance. Once your father passes away, hire a legal advisor who can advocate for you before your brothers try to take everything. Do not hesitate to stand up for yourself, as this is God's way of protecting you and maintaining balance in society. Do not let your mothers discourage you, as they may have been uneducated and naive in the past. Your silence will become a painful karmic experience for your brothers. Allah will ultimately balance everything in this world. Speak up for yourself, as you were born from the same parents, in the same way, and raised in the same environment.

* I hope my words can help change someone's perspective and bring them to their senses. Witnessing such incidents can be truly unsettling, prompting one to wonder whether education has improved us as a society or made us worse off compared to our ancestors.

If anyone is offended by my words, I apologize not for the content of my message, but rather for the circumstances that led your children to have such an unfortunate role model in you as a father. It is regrettable that you have failed to uphold the values and responsibilities that come with fatherhood. The underlying issue here is not about whether my words were harsh, but about your own shortcomings as a parent. Your children deserve better than the example you have set for them. While I do not wish to offend, my primary concern is for the wellbeing and proper upbringing of the next generation.

Education should cultivate not just intellectual growth, but also moral and ethical development. If the outcome is a deterioration of values compared to previous generations, then it points to a failure of the educational system and parental guidance. We must strive to ensure that progress encompasses both intellectual advancement and strengthening of noble character traits.

I hope my message prompts you to reflect deeply on your role and responsibilities as a father. Your children's future and the kind of society they will inherit depend on the example you set for them today. May you find the wisdom and courage to be the role model your children deserve.
