Dr. جمال الشافعي explains key concepts, rules, and problem-solving methods for inheritance questions, aiming to clarify common confusions and guarantee students’ success in exams.
Main Ideas and Concepts
- Structure of Inheritance Problems:
- Categories of Heirs:
- Heirs with fixed shares only (do not take Ta’sib): Husband, wife, mother, maternal brothers, paternal grandmother, maternal grandmother. They only take their fixed shares (e.g., 1/2, 1/4, 1/3, 1/6) and never the remainder.
- Heirs who take the remainder by Ta’sib only (no fixed share): Sons, sons’ sons, full brothers, paternal brothers, full nephews, paternal nephews, full uncles, paternal uncles, full cousins, paternal cousins. These are agnatic heirs who inherit the residue after fixed shares are distributed.
- Heirs who sometimes take fixed shares and sometimes take remainder by Ta’sib: Examples include daughters, daughters of sons, full sisters, paternal sisters, father, grandfather. Their share depends on the presence of other heirs and specific conditions.
- Key Rules for Fixed Shares:
- Husband: Takes 1/2 if no inheriting children (branch), otherwise 1/4.
- Wife: Takes 1/4 if no inheriting children, otherwise 1/8.
- Mother: Takes 1/3 if no inheriting children or group of brothers (two or more), otherwise 1/6.
- Maternal brothers: Take 1/3 if more than one, otherwise 1/6.
- Grandmothers (paternal and maternal): Share 1/6 together if both present.
- Agnatic Kinship (Ta’sib):
- The residue is inherited by the closest agnate (male relative through the male line).
- Priority order for residue inheritance:
- Son’s side (son, grandson)
- Brothers’ side (full brother, paternal brother, nephews)
- Paternal uncles and cousins
- Closer agnates exclude more distant ones from inheritance (blocking/ḥijāb).
- The father also blocks brothers and paternal uncles.
- Sons and grandsons block more distant relatives.
- Inheritance with Mixed Fixed and Residue Shares:
- Some heirs have both fixed shares and Ta’sib shares depending on circumstances.
- Example: Daughter alone takes 1/2, two daughters take 2/3; if a son is present, daughters take fixed share and son takes remainder.
- Full sister and paternal sister may take fixed shares and remainder depending on presence of other heirs.
- Special Cases and Common Exam Pitfalls:
- Maternal brothers never take the remainder by Ta’sib.
- No “bachelor’s share” for maternal brothers.
- Sons always take the remainder by Ta’sib, never a fixed share.
- Full brother blocks paternal brother, paternal brother blocks nephews.
- Daughter of a son and daughter do not inherit together by Ta’sib; obligatory shares take precedence.
- Female heirs who are agnates with others take the remainder as well (e.g., full sister with daughters).
- Grandfather blocks paternal uncles and siblings but not father.
- The “blocking” principle means closer relatives exclude more distant ones.
- Some heirs never get “blocked” such as parents and spouses.
- The concept of “withholding” (ḥijāb) and “blocking” (ḥijāb) explained in detail.
- Definitions and Terminology:
- Correct grandmother: Relation to deceased is valid.
- Corrupt grandmother: Relation is invalid or broken.
- Agnatic kinship with others: Female heirs who inherit by fixed shares and share remainder with male agnates.
- Blocking (ḥijāb): Closer heir excludes more distant heir.
