the exclusion. Whoever grants inheritance based on circumstances and setting forth (tanzil) said: the mother has one-sixth in three circumstances and one-third in one circumstance, so she has a quarter of that, which is one-sixth, one-third, and one-eighth. The wife has one-eighth in three circumstances and one-quarter in one circumstance, so she has a quarter of that, which is one-eighth and one-quarter of an eighth. The son has the remainder in one circumstance and two-thirds of it in one circumstance, so he has a quarter of that. The daughter has one-third of the remainder in one circumstance and one-half in one circumstance, so she has a quarter of that. If there is no agnate in the legal problem, the daughter has, by way of mandatory share and return, twenty-one out of thirty-two, instead of the half; the mother has seven instead of the one-sixth. The problem is validated, if there is no return (radd) in it, by expanding it to two hundred and eighty-eight shares: sixty for the mother, forty-five for the wife, eighty-five for the son, fifty-three for the daughter, and the remainder for the agnate. The analogy of the statement of one who aggregates the freedom in the context of exclusion is that he should aggregate the freedom in the context of inheritance, thus granting them three-quarters of the remainder. Ibn al-Labban said: they have seventeen (8) out of forty-eight; because if they were both free, they would have seventeen out of twenty-four, so they have, by their half-freedom (9), half of that. This is a mistake, because he treated the exclusion of each of them of the other by his half-freedom as if he were excluding him by his entire freedom. If this were valid, they would have (10) in the state of their being separate the half between them (11) without any increase. A son and parents, half of each of them is free: if we estimate them as free, the son has two-thirds; if we estimate him alone as free, he has the wealth; and if we estimate one of the parents as free with him, he has five-sixths. You add that together and find it to be three wealths and a third (12), so he has one-eighth of it, which is one-quarter of a sixth. The father has the wealth in one circumstance, two-thirds of it in one circumstance, and two-sixths in two circumstances, so he has one-eighth of that and a quarter (13). The mother has the one-third in two circumstances and one-sixth in two circumstances, so she has the one-eighth, and the remainder is for the agnate. If you work it out by expansion (bast), you would say: if we estimate them...
