Chapter: (( They ask you for a ruling. Say: Allah gives you a ruling regarding the kalalah. If a man dies leaving no children but has a sister, she gets half of what he leaves behind, and he inherits from her if she has no children. If there are two sisters, they get two-thirds of what he leaves behind. And if there are brothers and sisters, the male gets the share of two females. Allah makes things clear to you so that you do not go astray, and Allah is All-Knowing of everything. ))

The Reciter: Chapter:

They request from you a [legal] ruling. Say, "Allah gives you a ruling concerning one having neither descendants nor ascendants [as heirs]." If a man dies, leaving no child but [only] a sister, she will have half of what he left. And he inherits from her if she [dies and] has no child. But if there are two sisters [or more], they will have two-thirds of what he left. If there are both brothers and sisters, the male will have the share of two females. Allah makes clear to you [His law], lest you go astray. And Allah is Knowing of all things.

يستفتونك قل الله يفتيكم في الكلالة إن امرؤ هلك ليس له ولد وله أخت فلها نصف ما ترك وهو يرثها إن كان لها ولد فإن كانتا اثنتين فلهما الثلثان مما ترك وإن كانوا إخوة رجالا ونساء فللذكر مثل حظ الأنثيين يبين الله لكم أن تضلوا والله بكل شيء عليم

[An-Nisa 4:176]
