How is the inheritance distributed among: one full brother, five daughters, and a wife?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
If there are no other heirs, the inheritance is divided as follows: the daughters receive two-thirds (80 shares) due to their multiple number, the wife receives one-eighth (15 shares) due to the presence of a direct descendant (the daughters), and the remainder (25 shares) goes to the full brother by 'asabah (agnatic succession). The original basis of the inheritance is 24, and it is corrected to 120 shares.
