Do full brothers and sisters inherit along with the daughters of the deceased brother?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
Siblings from the father's side inherit under three conditions: the absence of the father, the absence of a male lineal descendant (son or son's son, however low), and the absence of a full sister with a daughter or a son's daughter, or the absence of a full brother. If these conditions are met, they inherit what remains after the sharers of fixed shares have taken their portions. If nothing remains, they are excluded. Therefore, if your brother from the father's side has no father, no son or daughter, and no full brother or full sister, then you inherit what remains after the daughters have taken their fixed shares.
