Ans: In my opinion, the person can not be facilitated with 50 percent share of property due to absence of following reasons: 2. There is not such case of homicide of his father. Homicide: A person, who causes the death of another, is disqualified for inheriting the properties of the said deceased. It is a rule of common prudence that law cannot allow a person to derive benefits out of his own wrongs. Under Hanafi law , an heir who causes the death either intentionally or negligently, is a disqualified heir or cannot inherit properties of the deceased. Thus, even if the death is caused due to negligent or accidental act of an heir, the heir is debarred from inheritance. Shia Law: Under the Ithna Asharia law, an heir is excluded from inheritance only where the death is caused intentionally. If the death is caused accidentally or negligently, the Ithna Asharia heir is not debarred from inheritance.
