Inheritance under the Sharia

Say who survived the deceased and the shares are computed as exact fractions by the rules of faraid. Give an amount and the funeral, debts and a bequest of up to a third come off first; the remainder is divided.

Deductions before division

Mizan does not issue fatwas and does not replace a scholar. It is not legal advice and gives no contract force under the law of any country. Where the matter is serious, have the contract read by a specialist in Sharia and by a lawyer.
