I am with him whenever he remembers Me; if he remembers Me in his heart, I remember him in My ‘Heart’; if he remembers Me in a gathering, I remember him in a gathering far better than that
gathering;
if he draws near to Me a hand’s span, I draw near to him an arm’s length; if he draws near to Me an arm’s
length, I draw near to him a fathom’s length; and if he comes to Me walking, I go to him running."

Estate Division (Irth/ Law of Faraid)
Estate division refers to the share allotted to each heir by Sacred Law.
The scriptural basis for estate division, prior to the consensus of scholars, consists of the Quranic verses on inheritance (4:11 – 12, 4:176) and traditions of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) where he said:
“Give the obligatory shares of the estate to those who deserve them…”

disposing of his own property, even if it is to be implemented after his death.
An estate division occurs after his death according to the Quranic rules of inheritance.
