NUM332 Observe the laws of inheritance. Key concepts: So that people realize that the world and everything in it belongs to its Creator, Who watches over all of His works and wants only good for them. Due to His goodness, the Creator helps people to earn their livelihood and acquire wealth and property. He sends His blessings continuously, without interruption, so a man's wealth and property are passed down to his children after him. When a man dies leaving behind no son or daughter, it is fitting that Heaven's blessings go to the man's closest blood relative, for perhaps that relative’s merit or the merit of a common ancestor caused the blessing to come. Alternatively, perhaps the deceased received the blessing because of things that he learned from his closest blood relative, and for that reason his relative inherits him.
