Heirs are partners in financial rights, and each heir has their specific share, which they can only waive for themselves. If one of them waives their share, it does not nullify the right of the others. As for the right of retribution (Qisas), if one of the heirs waives it, the entire Qisas is forfeited, because it is indivisible. Any heir who does not waive their right will receive their share of the blood money (Diyya).
