The answer

The usurper should be reminded of Allah and of the obligation to return the inheritance to its rightful heirs. If he insists [on withholding it], the matter should be referred to the Sharia courts. It is not permissible for a Muslim to bear witness to the usurper transferring the usurped wealth to anyone, for the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Indeed, I do not bear witness to injustice."
