Is the deceased's estate, consisting of an apartment, a car, a sum of money, and an uncollected pension, considered a gift to the only daughter, according to his statement, "The apartment is for my daughter"? And do the legal heirs have the right to claim a share of the uncollected pension funds?

The answer

If it is proven that the father transferred ownership of the apartment to his daughter during his lifetime and she took lawful possession of it, then the apartment is hers, and the remaining heirs have no right to it. However, if this is not proven, or if possession did not occur, then the apartment is considered an inheritance to be divided among all heirs. The monetary sum and the two thousand from the pension are also an inheritance to be distributed among the heirs. It is advisable to consult the Sharia courts or Islamic centers.
