الآية رقم (19) - وَتَأْكُلُونَ التُّرَاثَ أَكْلًا لَّمًّا

(19) - (And you consume inheritance, devouring [it] altogether, (19))

أَكْلًا لَّمًّا (devouring with greed): devouring everything they find, they do not care whether it is lawful (Halal) or forbidden (Haram) and devour what belongs to them and to others. That is because they used to forbid their sisters and their children from inheritance.

Until now, forbiddance of inheritance is a prevailed scourge in a lot of societies.

The one who collects money out of consuming inheritance, this money will be a trial and an insult to him, and it is not expected of him to consume it lawfully because he has taken his right and his family’s right and has not taken into consideration what is lawful and what is forbidden.

Therefore, those who have no money are better than those who have it if will lead to their destruction. Sometimes deprivation is an honour itself so we have to correct our view to money as Allah (swt) has taught us so that we live in this world upon guidance.
