and if the deceased has brothers and sisters, then one-sixth shall go to his mother.11 All these shares are to be given after payment of the bequest he might have made or any debts outstanding against him.12 You do not know which of them, your parents or your children, are more beneficial to you. But these portions have been determined by Allah, for He indeed knows everything, is cognizant of all beneficent considerations.
(12) And to you belongs half of whatever has been left behind by your wives if they die childless; but if they have any children then to you belongs a fourth of what they have left behind, after payment of the bequest they might have made or any debts outstanding against them. ▶
11 In the case where the deceased also has brothers and sisters the share of the mother will be one-sixth rather than one-third. In this case, the sixth that was deducted from the share of the mother will be added to that of the father, for in this circumstance the father’s obligations are heavier. It should be noted that if the parents of the deceased are alive, the brothers and sisters will not be entitled to any share in the inheritance.
12 The mention of bequest precedes the mention of debt, but there is consensus among Muslims that the payment of debt takes precedence over the payment of bequest, i.e. if the deceased owes a debt and also leaves a bequest, the debt will first be paid out of the inheritance, and only then will his bequest be honoured.
