Guiding one's father

Q: My father said bad things about the hereafter and that Allah will not punish us with fire. Of course Allah has given me clear signs of his power. Now I'm worried about my dad who said that there will be no punishment. We will just sleep. How can I explain to him that we have a creator?

Involvement in vain activities

Q: Mufti Saheb, if no money or goods are involved, is it halaal to have a league, with family, where you predict football match results and then have a league table of who got the most predictions right, based on their odds?

Inheritors wishing to waive their right of inheritance

Q: A man dies leaving behind no biological children nor parents. He had 10 siblings and many nephews and nieces. He did not have an Islamic will and wished to distribute his estate to his siblings, nephews and nieces. He is currently survived by 40 people (3 brothers, 1 sister and 36 nephews and nieces). His siblings wish to waive their shariah rights and distribute the estate equally among all 40 individuals. The main reason for this is to maintain and improve family ties among all. Would this be in order?
