The answer

If what the employer paid was due to the deceased, then it is an inheritance to be distributed among the legal heirs (the wife gets one-eighth, and the remainder is for the two sons equally, and the share of the minors is placed under the guardianship of the guardian until they reach maturity). If it was a donation, then the employer has more right to dispose of it according to his condition. As for interest, if it is from a permissible investment, it is (lawful); but if it is (unlawful), it is not permissible to benefit from it except for the poor.
