يَسۡتَفۡتُونَكَ قُلِ ٱللَّهُ يُفۡتِيكُمۡ فِي ٱلۡكَلَٰلَةِۚ إِنِ ٱمۡرُؤٌاْ هَلَكَ لَيۡسَ لَهُۥ وَلَدٞ وَلَهُۥٓ أُخۡتٞ فَلَهَا نِصۡفُ مَا تَرَكَۚ وَهُوَ يَرِثُهَآ إِن لَّمۡ يَكُن لَّهَا وَلَدٞۚ فَإِن كَانَتَا ٱثۡنَتَيۡنِ فَلَهُمَا ٱلثُّلُثَانِ مِمَّا تَرَكَۚ وَإِن كَانُوٓاْ إِخۡوَةٗ رِّجَالٗا وَنِسَآءٗ فَلِلذَّكَرِ مِثۡلُ حَظِّ ٱلۡأُنثَيَيۡنِۗ يُبَيِّنُ ٱللَّهُ لَكُمۡ أَن تَضِلُّواْۗ وَٱللَّهُ بِكُلِّ شَيۡءٍ عَلِيمُۢ
176They ask you for a legal verdict. Say: “Allah commands you as follows regarding Al-Kalalah (i.e. regarding the inheritance of a deceased person without children, nor parents). If it is a man who dies without any child but has a sister, then she would have half of the inheritance left by him. And if this sister dies and has no children (nor parents) then he will inherit all her property. If there are two (or more) sisters, they would get two-third of the inheritance. (And if a man or a woman die without parents and children) and has many such brothers and sisters, the male will have twice the share of the female. (Thus) Allah makes (His revelations) clear to you lest you go astray. And Allah is All-Knower of everything.”
