The answer

If the money is given to the mother as a gift and a gesture of kinship, it is her property and is to be divided among her heirs after her death. However, if the money is a loan, she owns it during her lifetime, and if she does not repay it, it must be repaid from her estate before division, in accordance with the verse: (after any bequest which he may have made or any debt).
