Inheritance

Q: A Sunni ruler from a princely state in India who performed more than four marriages. In order to get away from the Income Tax Department a few years before he died he gave an affidavit to the government that his legally wedded wives were only four. The other Ladies whom he had children with lived with him throughout their lives. The children were his own. The ruler provided them with everything. Not only his children but he also recognised his grandchildren by accepting them many a times and provided them with everything. Will the share of inheritance for children from the fifth marriage or the sixth marriage whom he accepted and acknowledged throughout his life time as his sons and daughters different from the children's share of his first four marriages or will his inheritance be distributed equally among all the heirs.

Protection from car accidents

Q: Please advise what I can read for Allah Ta'ala to save me from getting into a car accident. In my area, people always drive fast and in a very dangerous and inconsiderate manner. I become very nervous and worried whilst driving. Alhamdulillah, I do recite the Masnoon Duaas at the times of getting into the vehicle, when the vehicles moves, and reaching my destination.

Marital problems

Q: I have a husband. Its been a few weeks since we've got married. Alhamdulillah. We both are baaligh so we had our nikaah done with only 2 witnesses. I had a messed up past meaning I was bad before but now Alhamdulillah he's showing me the right path. I'm trying my best to become a better Muslimah Alhamdulillah and I've stopped doing what I used to do in the past. Sometimes when my whatsapp doesn't work or i'm on a different call with my female friend or family member, my husband thinks I'm talking with some na mahram. I told him about my past and that I don't talk with any na mahram anymore. He's being suspicious that I'm up to something behind his back but I'm not. I don't talk to any na mahram now. I don't know what to say to him. Should I sit down, talk to him and explain that I don't talk to anyone? Or what should I do?

Inheritance

Q: A mother (widow) in her life time verbally announced that she is giving her two daughters each a house so the day she passes on she will be assured that her two daughters have a roof over their head. Strangely one brother decided to put the properties into a family trust 20 years ago while the mother was still alive. The mother owned a number of properties and was receiving rent income from most of these properties. The said brother handled her finances for many years. 11 years ago she past on  and the said brother inherited all her properties and kept her monies. The sisters were told that the properties will be transferred to their names over this period. The sisters were paying exorbitant amounts in rates and taxes to this brother. One paid R1250 and the poorer one pay R900 on a monthly bases. Not so long ago this brother decides that the properties should go to the children of his sisters. He made the children sign documents in making them believe that the properties will go to them. It comes to light that he was lying. His first wife's children both girls would get 30% each then he has a second wife of two children were born out of wedlock. This daughter would get a 40% share. Many family members were sent to him, but he is so arrogant and boastful. He is untouchable and no one can do anything to him. He will use all his reach to destroy those that come in his path. Someone now recently told him that his late mother is turning in her grave. His response were that's her problem. She is dead and no one can do him anything. He uses gangsters to scare people who want to testify against him. He bribes building inspectors and erects insecure buildings (Flats). His daughters believe their father is right in doing so and they have cut ties from their family because of this. The sisters have been staying on these properties for 21 years. Please give some reference from the Qur'an so I can forward to this arrogant person's children. He is very sickly. He could go any time. I want to give this persons children the proof of the Qur'an and their punishment if they collaborate with their father.
