Surveying homicide as the real barriers of inheritance

There are times when some of the heir qualities cause them to be debarred from coming into their inheritance which are called inheritance barriers. In spite of contradictions among the jurists of Islamic faiths on the number of inheritance barriers, they all universally agree upon homicide as one. However, they have discords on the type of homicide and peculiar conditions. The aim here is to precisely identify the inheritance barriers and relative reasoning in this regard as well as surveying homicide as the only accepted barrier of inheritance among Islamic faiths. The major consequences of this research, then, are precise identification of inheritance barriers as well as identify features of homicide as the barriers of inheritance in addition to coming into this conclusion that a premeditated murder is not always considered a barrier.
