13 – The ḥadith makes it clear that the heirs’ entitlement is bound to the estate of their relative even while he is still alive; therefore, it is unlawful for him to devise stratagems in spending or to dispose of his assets in ways meant to strip them of their inheritance.

14 – The narration urges maintaining family bonds, showing kindness to relatives, and showing compassion toward one’s heirs, for attending to those nearest of kin and benefitting them is better than aiding those who are more distant.

15 – It also commends spending in charitable avenues and teaches that a deed is rewarded only in proportion to the intention behind it. Providing for one’s dependants is rewarded when done to seek Allah’s pleasure, and any otherwise permissible act becomes an act of obedience when undertaken for His sake.
