How is the inheritance calculated for a deceased female who left (100,0) and her heirs are: a father, 3 full brothers, a mother, and 2 full sisters?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

If the deceased has no heirs other than those mentioned, then after the payment of debts and bequests, the inheritance is divided as follows: the mother receives one-sixth due to the presence of siblings, and the father receives the remainder by ta'sib (residuary heirship), and the father excludes full siblings. Thus, the inheritance is divided into six shares: the father receives five shares, and the mother receives one share. If the inheritance is one hundred thousand, then the father's share is 83,333, and the mother's share is 16,667. Please note that inheritance issues are serious and complex and should be referred to the Sharia courts for investigation.
