Al-jawab billahi at-taufeeq (the answer with Allah’s guidance)
It should be remembered that although an adopted child cannot inherit from his adoptive father, but it is permissible, rather advisable, for him that he, in his lifetime, makes a will in favour of his adopted son. Through such a will he can bequeath upto one third of his property to his adopted child who cannot otherwise share his inheritance.
And Only Allah Ta’ala Knows Best.
