Want clarification regarding property division under muslim law
28-Mar-2023 (In Muslim Law Law)
We are muslim, 3 sisters and 1 brother.i need to know how the property will be divided within us. My father has one side and two houses. Please explain
Division of parents’ estate between sons and daughters.
Parental property is to be divide between 1 brother & 3 sister . What be the share of each one as shariat.
Praise be to Allaah.
If one parent has died, or both parents, and they have no heirs except 1 son and 3 daughter, then the estate should be divided on the basis that each male takes the share of two females, i.e. the daughter will have one share and each of the sons will have two shares. So the estate should be divided into five parts, of which the 3 daughters will have three share and the two remaining shares will be given to the son. This should be done after taking out the expenses of preparing and shrouding the deceased, and paying off any dues he owed to Allaah or debts he owed to other people, and after fulfilling his bequests if he left any such instructions before he died.
“Allaah commands you as regards your children’s (inheritance): to the male, a portion equal to that of two females; ... (The distribution in all cases is) after the payment of legacies he may have bequeathed or debts”
[al-Nisa’ 4:11]
