How is the inheritance distributed among: a husband, a mother, a son, a daughter, a full brother, and a full sister?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

If the deceased left behind only a mother, a husband, a son, a daughter, a full brother, and a full sister, then:

- The mother receives one-sixth due to the presence of a lineal descendant.

- The husband receives one-fourth due to the presence of a lineal descendant.

- The son and daughter receive the remainder by ta’sib (residuary heirship), with the male receiving the share of two females.

- The full brother and full sister receive nothing, as they are completely excluded by the son.

The inheritance is divided into thirty-six shares.
