Adoption __socratesPageHistoryEdit Visual Text ADOPTION. Arabic Tabanni تبني. An adopted son, or daughter, of known descent, has no right to inherit from his or her, adoptive parents and their relatives, - the filiation of this description being neither recommended nor recognised by Muslim law. Such son or daughter is, however, entitled to what may be given under a valid deed in gift or will. In this particular the Muhammadan agrees with the English, and the Hindu with the Roman law.
