Fatwa CenterDied leaving a brother and three nephews
Question
Assalaamu ‘Alaykum; Please calculate the inheritance according to the following information -Does the deceased have male relatives who are entitled to inherit: (A full brother) Number 1 (A nephew from a full brother) Number 3
Answer
All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, is His Slave and Messenger.
If the deceased did not have any other heirs except those mentioned in the question, then the whole estate will be for the full brother by Ta’seeb (by virtue of having a paternal relation with the deceased and not having an allotted share, so he gets what is left after the allotted shares have been distributed) and nothing will be given to the three nephews from a full brother because they are prevented from inheritance by the existence of the full brother.
Allaah Knows best.
