How is the rent of an inherited shop distributed among the heirs according to Sharia?
The rent of the shop is to be distributed among the heirs according to their prescribed shares. If the heirs are limited to a wife, one son, and three daughters, then the wife receives one-eighth due to the existence of a lineal descendant, which is 481.25 Egyptian pounds. The remainder is divided among the son and the daughters, with the male receiving the share of two females. Thus, each daughter receives 673.75 Egyptian pounds, and the son receives 1347.5 Egyptian pounds. It is important to note that matters of inheritance are serious and complex and require consulting the courts to ensure there are no other heirs, wills, or debts that take precedence over the heirs' rights.
