Summary
The entitled heirs are one wife (1/8, or 12/96), two daughters (2/3, or 64/96 with 32/96 each), and the full siblings as residuary heirs. Each of the two full sisters receives 5/96 and the full brother receives 10/96. An adopted child and nephews or nieces receive nothing, and the heirs of a full sibling who died before the deceased have no share. The fatwa advises the questioner to refer to the court for verification of the distribution.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Bagi saudara kandung si mati yang meninggal duhulu sebelum si mati, maka ahli keluarganya atau warisnya tidak mempunyai hak untuk mendapat bahagian dalam pembahagian harta pusaka tersebut.
