Islamic inheritance is calculated based on the Quranic guidelines where shares are predetermined. The basic formula considers the deceased’s assets minus funeral expenses and debts, then distributes according to prescribed shares.

In Islamic law, when inheriting together, a brother receives twice the share of a sister. This is based on the Islamic principle where males have greater financial responsibilities towards family.

The Quran provides detailed inheritance laws in Surah An-Nisa (4:11-12, 4:176), specifying shares for different heirs including children, spouses, parents, and siblings.

Siblings’ inheritance depends on whether they are full siblings, paternal siblings, or maternal siblings. Full siblings have priority, and the male generally receives twice the female’s share.

Share ownership in Islamic inheritance is calculated by first determining the total estate value, identifying all eligible heirs, and then applying the Quranic fractions to distribute shares accordingly.

Surah Nisa (verses 11-12, 176) outlines specific shares: children, spouse, parents each have fixed shares. Daughters receive half of sons’ share, and detailed guidelines for various scenarios are provided.

A sister’s inheritance varies based on the presence of other heirs. If she inherits with a brother, she receives half his share. If she’s the only heir, she may receive a larger portion.

In Islamic law, inheritance is not always equal but is based on prescribed shares. Brothers receive twice the share of sisters due to their financial obligations in Islam.

Key ratios include: son gets twice daughter’s share, husband gets 1/2 if no children (1/4 if children), wife gets 1/4 if no children (1/8 if children), parents each get 1/6 if children exist.

Islamic law encourages mutual agreement. Siblings can buy out others’ shares, rent the property, or find alternative solutions through mutual consultation and fair valuation.

Yes, after receiving your share, you can gift it to anyone. However, you cannot alter the initial distribution of inheritance as prescribed by Islamic law.

In divorce, each spouse keeps their individual property. Shared property is divided based on contribution and agreement. This is separate from inheritance laws.

A house is valued at market price and divided according to prescribed shares. Heirs can either sell and split proceeds, or one heir can buy others’ shares at fair value.

Calculate each heir’s fraction according to Islamic law, convert to percentages, and apply to the house’s total value. Use approved Islamic inheritance calculators for accuracy.

A wife receives 1/4 of her husband’s estate if they have no children, and 1/8 if they have children. Multiple wives share this portion equally.

The Prophet (ﷺ) emphasized following Allah’s prescribed shares saying: “Give the shares to those who are entitled to them, and what remains goes to the nearest male heir.”

Yes, a brother has financial responsibility towards his unmarried or widowed sister if she needs support, which is one reason for the difference in inheritance shares.

Cost basis is typically the fair market value at the time of inheritance. Consult local laws alongside Islamic guidelines for tax implications.

If only daughters inherit, one daughter gets 1/2, two or more share 2/3. With sons present, each daughter gets half of a son’s share. This distribution ensures family support structure.

This is balanced by Islamic law requiring males to financially support family members, pay mahr (dowry), and cover household expenses, while females keep their inheritance and earnings for themselves.
