What is the share of each heir from an inheritance amounting to three and a half million dirhams, if the heirs are one brother and three sisters, and the brother passed away leaving three daughters?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

The money is divided among the siblings, with the male receiving the share of two females. Thus, the sister gets 700,0 dirhams, and the brother gets 1,400,0 dirhams. As for the second inheritance, the daughters receive two-thirds of what their father left, so the share of each daughter is 311,111 dirhams. The remainder is divided among the three sisters by way of ta’sib (residuary heirship), where each sister's share from the second inheritance is added to her share from the first inheritance, making her total share 855,555.5 dirhams.
