In this short snippet from a Deeper Look: Surah Al-Ahzab, Ustadh Nouman Ali Khan sheds light on a lesser-discussed wisdom from Surah Al-Ahzab (33:6)—how Islamic inheritance law prevents wealth from staying locked within elite families. He draws a sharp contrast with modern society, where “old money” remains untouched for generations, growing while the rest of society struggles.
The Quran’s system interrupts this cycle. If a trillionaire dies under Islamic law, their wealth is split across family: parents, spouse, children, even extended relatives. Within one or two generations, the concentration of wealth is naturally diluted. Through marriage, family ties and thoughtful distribution, money flows outward—not upward.
This isn’t just about family law. It’s economic justice baked into the structure of society. The Quran doesn’t just speak about worship—it speaks about power, class and the responsibility to dismantle systems that leave the majority behind.
