Wasiyat For More Than A Third

Question: Can I make a bequest that upon my demise, all my wealth should be given in charity? 

Answer: A bequest is only valid up to a third of the estate. If the bequest exceeds a third, it may only be implemented with consent of the heirs, if all are adults. The consent  will only be valid after the demise of the Deceased. 

ولا تجوز الوصية للوارث الا ان يجيزها الورثة ولا يجوز بما زاد على الثلث (القدوري ٨٥٢)

يمنع صلاة وصوماً وقراءة القران  ومسه ولو مكتوباً بالفارسية في الأصح [ بفتاوي الشامي ج١ ص٢٩٣]

و يجب السجود على من تلا اية... و لو تلاها بالفارسية اتفاقا فهم او لم يفهم لكونها قرانا من وجه.

 و قال الطحطاوي: (قوله:لكونها قرانا من وجه) أي نظرا للمعنى دون وجه نظرا للنظم, فباعتبار المعنى توجب السجدة و باعتبار النظم لا توجبها فتجب احتياط

[حاشية ا لطحطاوي مع مراقي الفلاح]
