Description: | Hanno tells us about a villager who converted to Islam. He lef his Christian wife and left his children, and re-married two Muslim women, and had children with them. When he died, his Muslim children returned to the village to claim their inheritance. Their Christian brothers said that they would only get their inheritance if they converted to Christianity, since their father's inheritance was accumultated when their father was a Christian. He also tells us about another case when a villager converted to Islam, however, he later converted back to Christianity. | |
