How is the financial return from renting and selling inherited properties divided, given the distribution of the legally stipulated shares specified in the title deed?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

The rent from inherited properties is divided among the heirs according to the Sharia-compliant division of inheritance. Each heir receives a share of the rent proportionate to their share in the property. For example, if a father passes away, leaving a wife, a son, and four daughters, the son would receive 14 shares out of 48 shares of the rent, the wife 6 shares out of 48, and each daughter 7 shares out of 48. The same division applies to the proceeds from selling the property.
