Ruling on attributing the Laqit to the one who found it


631

A: You should tell the truth to the Laqit (foundling) child and assure him. He is not the only one who has undergone this, and it does not harm him if he adheres to religion. You should not hide this from him, because it leads to much harm; he is counted one of your children; he is considered a Mahram (non-marriageable relative) to your daughters and their aunts like the rest of your children; he will also share your inheritance with your children, although he is not one of them. There is no harm in writing a will where you give him one third or less of your property. You will be greatly rewarded for your mercy and benevolence. (Part No. 16; Page No. 14) May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
