Aya 176
176
يَستَفتونَكَ قُلِ اللَّهُ يُفتيكُم فِي الكَلالَةِ ۚ إِنِ امرُؤٌ هَلَكَ لَيسَ لَهُ وَلَدٌ وَلَهُ أُختٌ فَلَها نِصفُ ما تَرَكَ ۚ وَهُوَ يَرِثُها إِن لَم يَكُن لَها وَلَدٌ ۚ فَإِن كانَتَا اثنَتَينِ فَلَهُمَا الثُّلُثانِ مِمّا تَرَكَ ۚ وَإِن كانوا إِخوَةً رِجالًا وَنِساءً فَلِلذَّكَرِ مِثلُ حَظِّ الأُنثَيَينِ ۗ يُبَيِّنُ اللَّهُ لَكُم أَن تَضِلّوا ۗ وَاللَّهُ بِكُلِّ شَيءٍ عَليمٌ

T. B. Irving

They will ask you for your verdict. SAY: "God advises you (all) concerning indirect heirs. If some man should pass away and has no son while he leaves a sister, then she shall have half of anything he may leave; while he inherits from her if she has no child. If they are two women [who are sisters], they shall both have two thirds of whatever he may leave. If they are siblings, both men and women, then each brother shall have the same share as two sisters would have. God explains things to you lest you go astray. God is (all) Aware of everything!
