The deceased, Zainab, passed away on 10 August 2020.
The Facts
- She had been married to Musa, who died in 2014.
- She left four children, all daughters: Aini, Aina, Ainul and Aisyah.
- Her full siblings, counting the deceased herself, numbered ten — five brothers and five sisters: Hasan, the deceased, Nuh, Khatijah, Husin, Kamariah, Zulaikha, Zubair, Liana and Zulbaidi.
The Faraid Distribution
| Heir | Relationship | Share |
|---|---|---|
| Aini | Daughter | 7/42 |
| Aina | Daughter | 7/42 |
| Ainul | Daughter | 7/42 |
| Aisyah | Daughter | 7/42 |
| Hasan, Nuh, Husin, Zubair, Zulbaidi | Full brother | 2/42 each |
| Khatijah, Kamariah, Zulaikha, Liana | Full sister | 1/42 each |
| Total | 42/42 |
Why do the siblings inherit too? Because the deceased left no son. The four daughters together take 2/3 (28/42), and the remainder passes as asabah to the full siblings — each brother taking twice a sister’s share.
I hope this helps.
