Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
If the deceased leaves behind only a daughter, a son's daughter, a grandmother, and a grandfather, then the inheritance is divided as follows: the daughter receives one-half (3/6), the son's daughter receives one-sixth (1/6) as a completion of the two-thirds, the grandmother receives one-sixth (1/6), and the grandfather receives one-sixth (1/6). Thus, the total shares amount to six.
