The questioner:
In the case of a group, a man died leaving behind two full sisters and a paternal half-brother. From three.
The Shaykh:
Two full sisters. Two-thirds. Two-thirds, and the remainder is distributed among them, by what reason? Distribute it by what reason. In the ruling. By relationship, meaning kinship. Yes. Good. The one after you. Yes? The mother’s husband and the freed slave.
The questioner:
The issue is from six, O Shaykh.
The Shaykh:
And what about the husband? The husband gets half. The mother gets one-third. By one? By what did they inherit? By the bond of loyalty (wala'). The freed slaves and the husband. The husband took it through marriage. And the mother through kinship. Good, if he dies leaving his wife, a daughter, and a freed slave woman.
The questioner:
The issue is from eight.
The Shaykh:
And what about the wife? The wife does not get an eighth. And the daughter. Like her, half. And the freed slave woman is an heir by proximity. By what did they inherit? The wife through marriage. And the daughter. And the daughter through kinship. And the freed slave woman through the bond of loyalty. Good, after that, did something happen?
