Claiming the inheritance from deceased brothers and sisters


642

Q: My father died leaving four sons and four daughters. One of the sons, three of the daughters, and I are full siblings from the same father and mother. The remaining sons and daughter are half-siblings from our father. My full-brother and two of my full-sisters have since died. I hope you can answer my question: is it permissible for me to claim for my share in the inheritances belonging to my brother and sisters who died after my father?


A: If the reality is as you mentioned, you have the right to claim your share from your late brother’s and sisters’ inheritances. May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
