1 min readAlso available in العربية

If the house price is 70,0 Saudi Riyals, it is divided according to the rule of a male receiving the share of two females. Thus, each son receives 28,0 Riyals and each daughter receives 14,0 Riyals. The father's share (28,0 Riyals) is then divided among his heirs: the wife receives one-eighth (3,500 Riyals), and the remaining amount (24,500 Riyals) is divided among the children, with a male receiving the share of two females. So, each son receives 6,125 Riyals and each daughter receives 3,62.5 Riyals. The paternal aunt's share (14,0 Riyals) is divided among her heirs: the husband receives one-fourth (3,500 Riyals), and the remainder is divided among the children, with a male receiving the share of two females. So, each son receives 1,750 Riyals and each daughter receives 875 Riyals.
