Are the remaining installments of the Real Estate Development Bank on the deceased's house considered a debt upon him or upon his heirs?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
The debt of the deceased is paid from his wealth before the distribution of the inheritance. If he does not have wealth, his children or heirs are not obligated to pay his debt, unless they volunteer to do so, in which case they will have a great reward.
