My father has not worked in years and my mother is the sole breadwinner. There is a mortgage on the house which my mom pays. We are three daughters with no brothers and both my mom and dad ghave no parents. My mom has a compulsory pension fund and this will be the only funds available as inheritance should she die.
how should the proceeds of the pension fund be distributed amongst her heirs.
Answer
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
Assalaamu `alaykum waRahmatullahi Wabarakatuh
Before we respond to your query, kindly inform us if your mother has enlisted any beneficiaries in the event of her death prior to retirement.
And Allah knows best
