Summary
An heir who buys the inherited house still has the right to his share as a faraid heir. His percentage share is therefore deducted from the price of the house that he must pay.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Dia yang ingin membeli rumah itu berhak mendapatkan haknya juga. Justeru, ditolak peratusan bahagiannya daripada harga rumah tersebut.
