Q: A deceased leaves behind: * wife (1) * daughter (1) * son (1)
No will has been made by deceased. Only a house is left which the inheritors have agreed on selling. After the house is sold how will the amount be distributed accordingly?
A:
After paying burial expenses, fulfilling of any debts and discharging bequests made up to one-third of the estate, the estate of the deceased will be divided into 24 equal shares and distributed as follows:
Wife will receive 3 shares
Son will receive 14 shares
Daughter will receive 7 shares
NB: The above Shar'ee distribution of inheritance is based on the information provided regarding the total number of heirs of the deceased present.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
