Dynamic translation
(4:176) They ask you - say, "Allah will answer your question concerning (the inheritance of) singles. If an individual dies who has no child but (has) a sister, she (owns) half of what he left behind. (In the same way) he inherits from her if she has no child. But if there are two (sisters), then to them (belong) two thirds of what he left. But if (the heirs) are male and female brothers (and sisters), then the man (has a share) equal to that of the two women. Allah makes this clear to you, lest you (fall) into delusion. Allah is aware of every thing.
