Arabic original
إذا لم يوجد من الموصي لهم غير واحد ، انفرد بالغلة ، او بالعين الموصي بها ، الا إذا
دلت عبارة الموصي ، او قامت قرينة على انه قصد التعدد ، ففي هذه الحالة يصرف
للموصي له نصيبه من الغلة ، ويعطى الباقي لورثة الموصي ، وتقسم العين بين
الموصي له ، وبين ورثة الموصي عند اليأس من وجود مستحق آخر .Ask about this article
