Of the other two numbers, when 1/4 comes with either /3 or 1/6, twelve will be used as it is the lowest common multiple, and when 1/8 appears with either /3 or 1/6, then the lowest common multiple is 24 (which all allotments can fit into). This lowest common multiple, for practical purposes, will be called “the sum”. The Sum, made from the lowest common multiple of the 2 F\{imah _________________________________________________________ allotments Sister Symbol to mark the Sum 1/2 12 The Sum is 12 due to 1/4 appearing with F\{imah _________________________________________________________ 1/6 or /3 Husband 1/4 Wife Daughter 1/2 Daughter 1/8 2/3 Once this is done, one can write down the amount of parts that each heir will receive under their allotments. The total of these parts must equal the sum for the inheritance to be complete at this level. 56 Mother 1/6 Daughter Sister Residue 24 The Sum is 24 due to 1/8 appearing with ¬dam ___________________________________________________________ 1/6 or /3 Brother Residue 12 F\{imah _________________________________________________________ Husband Daughter Mother Sister 1/4 1/2 1/6 Residue 3 6 2 1 24 The total of all allotments needs to equal ¬dam ___________________________________________________________ the sum for the estate to be accounted for Wife Daughter 1/8 2/3 3 16 Daughter Brother Residue 5
If the number of allotments does not equal the sum then, provided no mistake has been made, either Àwl or Radd will take place. Radd is when the number of allotments does not reach the sum. This due to its intricacies will be explained further on. If however the number of allotments exceeds the sum, Àwl (adjustment of the sum) will take place, wherein the sum will be altered to fit the allotments. If Allotments are more than sum (24), Àwl 24 27 (Adjustment) will be made to equal allotments ¬dam ___________________________________________________________ Wife Daughter Daughter 1/8 2/3 3 16 Allotments equal 27 Note: Àwl can only be made from three specific sums. These are 6, 12, and 24. Àwl cannot be made from the other numbers. If Àwl is made from 6 it can result in the new sum being 7, 8, 9, or 10. 57 Mother Father 1/6 1/6 4 4 6 7 F\{imah _________________________________________________________ Husband Sister Sister 1/2 2/3 6 8 3 4 F\{imah _________________________________________________________ Husband Sister Sister Mother 1/2 2/3 1/6 3 4 1 6 9 F\{imah _________________________________________________________ Husband Sister Sister Mother Uterine Brother 1/2 2/3 1/6 1/6 3 4 1 1 6 10 F\{imah _________________________________________________________ Husband Sister Sister Mother Uterine Brother Uterine Brother 1/2 2/3 1/6 1/3 3 4 1 2
