Question:
May Allah keep you in good health, O Shaykh. I love you for the sake of Allah. May Allah marry you to seventy women of noble character and beautiful eyes. Please, my brother. By Allah, I know you; if I were not to praise you to Allah, I would still consider you sufficient for me. No, no, wait a moment, a moment, a moment, my brother. There is a hesitation. She has two daughters and a son. Please, please. She wants to give to her son and her daughters. Does she give to them equally, or does she give to her son the share of two females while she is still alive and earning?

Answer:
Do not follow the division of Allah
for the male, what is equal to the share of two femalesلِلذَّكَرِ مِثْلُ حَظِّ الْأُنثَيَيْنِ
