the entire estate. It is narrated from the Prophet (may Allah bless him and grant him peace) that he said: "A woman acquires three inheritances: her foundling, her freed slave, and the child whom she invoked imprecation (li'an) against." Extracted by Ibn Majah(8). Thus, he assigned to her the entire inheritance of her child who was disowned via li'an. The inheritance of others among the fixed-share holders was excluded from this by consensus, and the remainder stayed subject to the original generality. Furthermore, because she is among his heirs by blood relationship (rahim), she is more entitled to the wealth than the public treasury, just like his residuaries ('asabat). As for His saying the Almighty: {She shall have half of what he leaves}(9), it does not negate that she might have an increase upon it for another reason, like His saying the Almighty: {For his parents, to each of them is a sixth of what he leaves if he has a child}(10). This does not negate that the father may have the sixth, plus what remains beyond the daughter by way of the 'asabah (residuaries), and His saying: {And for you is half of what your wives leave}(11). It did not negate that the husband may have what remains if he is a paternal cousin or a master (mawla). Likewise, the brother through the mother if he is a paternal cousin, and the daughter and others among the fixed-share holders if she were a manumitter. Thus it is here: she is entitled to the half by way of the fixed share, and the remainder by way of the return (radd). As for the spouses, they are not among the relatives (dhu al-arham).

1013 - Issue: He said: "And if there is a sister from both parents, a sister from the father, and a sister from the mother, then the sister from both parents has the half, the sister from the father has the sixth, and the sister from the mother has the sixth, and what remains is returned to them according to the proportion of their shares."

So the estate becomes shared among them in five parts: the sister from both parents has three-fifths of the estate, the sister from the father has one-fifth, and the sister from the mother has one-fifth. The method of calculation in the return is to take the shares of those entitled to the return from the base of their problem, and it always results in six, since there is nothing in the fixed shares in total that is not contained within six except the quarter and the eighth, and they belong to no one other than the spouses, and they are not among those entitled to the return. Then,
