Ruling 2766 — Inheritance (Irth)

If the deceased does not have a sister or a brother, their share of the inheritance is given to their offspring, and the share of the maternal half-brother’s child and maternal half-sister’s child is divided equally among them. As for the share of the paternal half-brother’s child and paternal half-sister’s child, or the child of the full sibling, based on the opinion held by most jurists (mashhūr), every son receives twice the share of the daughter. However, it is not farfetched (baʿīd)[1] that the estate must be divided equally between them and, based on obligatory precaution, they must arrive at a settlement.
