The debts of Al-Zubayr amounted to two million two hundred thousand, and Al-Zubayr left behind assets that would cover his debts and exceed them. Thus, the share of each of his four wives, after debt repayment and bequests, was one-quarter of one-eighth, which is approximately one million two hundred thousand.
