As long as you acquired these items through lawful means, there is no sin upon you if the heirs use any of them in an impermissible way, for the burden of sin is upon them. We advise you to raise your children on the straight path and religious values, and to warn them against decadent Western behaviors. You are not required to dispose of these means as long as you use them in a permissible way.
