What is the share of the husband, the daughter, the mother, the full brother, and the two full sisters from a woman's inheritance after the payment of debts and the execution of the will?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

If the heirs are limited to a daughter, a husband, a mother, a full brother, and two full sisters, the inheritance is divided as follows: the daughter receives one-half, the husband receives one-fourth due to the presence of a direct descendant heir, the mother receives one-sixth, and the remainder is divided between the full brother and the two full sisters, with the male receiving the share of two females. Thus, the estate would be divided into 48 shares: 24 for the daughter, 12 for the husband, 8 for the mother, 2 for the full brother, and 1 for each full sister. The matter of inheritances must be referred to the Sharia courts for investigation and to ensure there are no wills, debts, or other heirs.
