Hadith 657
۞
If a man passes away and leaves behind a full brother (from the same father and mother), the entire inheritance goes to that brother. Similarly, if he leaves two or more full brothers, the estate is divided equally among them.
If he leaves behind a full sister (from the same father and mother), she receives half of the inheritance as explicitly assigned, and the remaining portion is also returned to her since she is the closest relative with a designated share.
If he leaves two or more full sisters, they collectively receive two-thirds of the inheritance, and the remainder is also distributed among them as relatives entitled to shares.
If the deceased leaves both full brothers and full sisters, the estate is divided among them with the male receiving twice the share of the female, as specified by the principle: "For the male is the share of two females."
Likewise, paternal brothers and sisters (sharing the same father but different mothers) take the place of full siblings if there are no full brothers or sisters.
If the deceased leaves a full brother and a paternal brother, the entire inheritance goes to the full brother, and the paternal brother receives nothing. Paternal siblings, whether male or female, do not inherit alongside full siblings. If he leaves a full brother and a paternal sister, the entire estate goes to the full brother. Similarly, if he leaves a full sister and a paternal brother, the full sister receives half by designation, and the remaining portion goes to the closest kin among the relatives, with the full sister being the closest.
