How is the inheritance of a woman who died leaving a husband, four sons, five daughters, a full brother, and a maternal half-sister distributed?
If a woman dies and leaves behind: a husband, four sons, five daughters, a full brother, and a maternal sister, then the husband gets one-quarter due to the presence of children, based on the Almighty's saying: (And for you is half of what your wives leave if they have no child. But if they have a child, for you is one-fourth of what they leave). The remainder goes to the children, with the male receiving the share of two females, based on the Almighty's saying: (Allah instructs you concerning your children: for the male, what is equal to the share of two females). The full brother and the maternal sister receive nothing. The inheritance is divided into 52 parts: 13 for the husband, 6 for each son, and 3 for each daughter.
