Is a declaration of debt made by a person to an heir valid if that heir subsequently loses their inheritance status before the declarant's death?

Primary text

The declaration made by a person to an heir, who subsequently loses their inheritance status (such as a man declaring a debt to his brother when he has no children, and then subsequently has a son), is invalid. The ruling is that the declaration is void because it was made to an heir, which is associated with suspicion (*ittiham*). Since the initial condition of suspicion was present, the declaration does not become valid later, just as it would be invalid if the inheritance status had persisted.
