What is the share of each heir from the inheritance based on the mentioned data?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
If the heirs are: sons, daughters, and a mother, then the mother takes one-sixth due to the presence of offspring, and the remainder is for the sons and daughters by ta'sib (residuary heirship), with the male receiving the share of two females. The inheritance is divided into 48 shares: the mother receives 8 shares, each son receives 10 shares, and each daughter receives 5 shares. The matter of inheritances must be referred to the courts for investigation, as there may be wills, debts, or other rights that could be hidden from the heirs.
