What is the share of each heir – the mother, two sisters, and paternal uncle – after the death of the deceased?
The mother receives one-sixth due to the presence of the two sisters, as Allah says: (But if he has brothers, then for his mother is one-sixth). The two sisters receive two-thirds, as Allah says: (But if there are two [sisters], they receive two-thirds of what he left), this is if they are full sisters or paternal sisters. However, if they are maternal sisters, they share one-third equally between them. The uncle receives the remainder, according to the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him: (Give the prescribed shares to those who are entitled to them, and whatever remains is for the closest male relative).
