bequest is not allowed in favour of an heir: “There is no bequest for an heir” (AD. 17:6: Tr. 29:4; IM. 23:6). To this are added in some reports the words “unless the heirs wish it” (MM. 12:20-ii). Thus while generally a will can be made only for charitable objects, and not for heirs, it is permissible to make a will in favour of heirs, if they wish it: so that if they have no objection, any arrangement may be made for the disposal of the property by will. Hence if the heirs agree, a man may either divide the whole property by will, or he may leave the property undivided, fixing the shares of the heirs in the income.
