Will the deceased be held accountable for his children's use of his lawful money for unlawful deeds?
A parent is not held accountable for the sins of their children regarding the wealth they bequeath to them, based on the Almighty's saying: "And no bearer of burdens will bear the burden of another." However, if the children's disobedience results from the parent's negligence in raising them, then the parent will be held accountable for that negligence. It is incumbent upon parents to raise their children in obedience and远离 prohibitions, as they are responsible for their flock, and they have a divine injunction to attend to the religious and worldly interests of their children.
