Info

The sister of the deceased has five separate allotments depending on the circumstance. The above verse mentions three separate situations, and from deduction a fourth can also be extracted, i.e. if in the absence of offspring she inherits, then in their presence she does not inherit. This is what the verdict is in regards to male offspring, The situation when the deceased also had a daughter is derived from the following A#\d|th: Mu`\dh ibn Jabal t, in the era of the Messenger r, gave the verdict of a daughter getting half of the estate and a sister getting the remaining half. al-Bukh\r| The Messenger of All\h r gave the judgement that for a daughter there is half, for a granddaughter there is one sixth and for a sister there is the remainder. al-Bukh\r|, at-Tirmidh| Scenario No. 1 2 3 4 5 Proportion 1/2 2/3 Shared Residue Residue Bereft Allotment Caused By Prevailing Allotment If two or more are present then they will share If a brother is present they will share the residue. Daughter, Granddaughter Son, Grandson, Father, Grandfather Additional Details This is when only one is present - The female will get one part and the male will get two parts.
