What is the share of the husband, daughter, mother, brothers, and sisters from the inheritance of a woman who died before her mother?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

If the heirs are limited to the husband, the daughter, the mother, and the siblings, then the husband's share is one-fourth due to the presence of the daughter. The daughter's share is one-half, and the mother's share is one-sixth. The remainder is divided among the siblings, with the male receiving the share of two females. This is if they are all full siblings or paternal siblings. If they are maternal siblings, they inherit nothing because they are excluded by the lineal descendant (the daughter). It should be noted that matters of inheritance are serious and must be referred to the Sharia courts for investigation, as there may be an heir, bequests, debts, or other rights of which the heirs are unaware.
