How is the inheritance distributed among: 3 full brothers, a husband, a mother, and 3 daughters?
If a woman passes away, leaving behind a husband, a mother, three daughters, and three full brothers, and no other heirs, then her mother receives one-sixth, her daughters two-thirds, and her husband one-fourth. The full brothers receive nothing because the case is "awlah" (has a deficit). The estate is divided into thirty-nine shares: the mother receives six shares, the husband nine shares, and each daughter eight shares. Inheritance cases must be referred to Sharia courts to ensure their correct application and the inclusion of all rights, bequests, and debts.
