Inheritance: husband, sons, daughter, brother & sisters
Question:
A woman died and left behind a daughter and two sons, husband, brother and five sisters. How to distribute the inheritance?
Answer:
The sisters and the brother are obscured (from the inheritance) due to the presence of the children.
The husband inherits a quarter (of the wealth).
And what remains from the wealth, then as has been mentioned, a daughter and two sons, they divide it according to how Allāh has mentioned:
(لِلذَّكَرِ مِثۡلُ حَظِّ ٱلۡأُنثَیَیۡنِۚ)
“To the male, a portion equal to that of two females”
[Surah An-Nisa’ 11]
As for the brother, then he remains obscured due to the presence of children.
