Does a full sister inherit from her deceased sister if the deceased has a daughter and a full brother?
In this case, the full sister inherits. The daughter receives one half (because she is one), based on Allah's saying: "And if there is only one daughter, she receives one half." The remaining half is distributed to the brother and sister by ta'seeb (residuary inheritance), with the male receiving the equivalent of the share of two females, based on Allah's saying: "And if there are brothers and sisters, male and female, then for the male is the share of two females." The inheritance is divided into six parts: three for the daughter, two for the brother, and one for the sister.
