 they seek your verdict. tell them god commands this concerning your kindred if a man dies childless but has a sister she will receive half of the legacy. if a woman dies childless her brother will receive the whole legacy. if a childless man leaves only two sisters both will receive twothirds of the legacy. if the heirs are both sisters and brothers the share of a male will be twice as much as the share of the female. god explains his laws to you so that you will not go astray. god knows all things.
يستفتونك قل الله يفتيكم في الكلالة إن امرؤ هلك ليس له ولد وله أخت فلها نصف ما ترك وهو يرثها إن لم يكن لها ولد فإن كانتا اثنتين فلهما الثلثان مما ترك وإن كانوا إخوة رجالا ونساء فللذكر مثل حظ الأنثيين يبين الله لكم أن تضلوا والله بكل شيء عليم
