Is the daughter who won a plot of land in the lottery, and for whom her mother paid the insurance value, distinguished from her other sisters, and does this affect the mother's satisfaction?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
If the registration of the land in the name of the son or daughter is a formality and the land will belong to the mother, then Islamic law mandates justice among children and prohibits preferring some over others, as the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Fear Allah and be just among your children." Al-Nawawi said: "Meaning, treat them equally in the principle of giving and its amount." It is not permissible to distinguish the daughter by giving her more unless her mature, sensible brothers agree to it.
