Will a step sister inherit?
Question
We are four brothers from the same mother and father. We also have a step sister sharing the same father. Does she count in the inheritance and what is her share?
Answer
She will have a share in the father's estate, not in your mother's estate.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
