Question

If my husband passes away what is the inherentence?

If I pass away what is the inherentence?

We have two minor sons (5 and 2). Husband has a father. I have both my parents.

Another situation: Husband passes away, has a wife, daughter and a father what is the inherentence?

Answer

His father receives 1/6, the wife will receive 1/8 and the remainder goes to the two sons equally.

Both the parents get 1/6 each, the husband will receive ¼ and the remainder goes to both the sons equally.

The wife receives 1/8, the daughter receives ½ and the father receives the remainder.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
