Inheritance
Question
How do we distribute shares between 2 brothers and 3 sisters?
Answer
If the deceased left behind just 2 sons and 3 daughters and no other heirs then the estate will be divided into 7 equal shares and distributed as follows:
Each son will receive 2 shares
Each daughter will receive 1 share
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
