What is the share of each heir from the deceased's estate, which consists of one daughter and a grandmother (mother's mother)?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

If the deceased leaves behind only his daughter and his grandmother, then the daughter receives one-half as a prescribed share (fard), and the grandmother receives one-sixth as a prescribed share (fard). The remainder is returned to them (radd). The estate is divided into four shares: the daughter receives three shares, combining her prescribed share and the return, and the grandmother receives one share, combining her prescribed share and the return.
