How are 70,000 divided among three daughters and three sons?
If a person dies leaving three sons and three daughters, and no other heirs, their estate is to be divided among them by ta'sib (residuary inheritance), with the male receiving the share of two females, in accordance with the Almighty’s saying: "Allah instructs you concerning your children: for the male, what is equal to the share of two females." Thus, the amount is divided into nine shares: each son receives two shares, and each daughter receives one share. The questioner is advised to refer inheritance matters to the courts, as there is a possibility of other heirs, wills, debts, or rights that take precedence over the rights of the heirs.
