How is the cost of registering the ownership of parts of a property (faraa and tabu) divided among heirs, given that the value of these parts is unequal and they have been divided by mutual consent?
First: There is no objection to dividing the inheritance in the manner mentioned, whether by valuation, mutual agreement, or by selling it and dividing its price.
Second: The cost of transferring ownership and registering the title shall be borne by all heirs and be divided proportionally to each heir's share. So, whoever owns half pays half the cost, and whoever owns a quarter pays a quarter. The cost is divided based on the value of what each heir received, according to the following equation: Cost × Value of each heir’s share ÷ Value of the entire inheritance. If the cost is paid to governmental bodies for each separate asset, then each owner is responsible for the cost of his share and what results from the procedures for transferring its ownership.
