Quran /4- « The Women » AL- NISA « Madinite » /   Verse 12         12- a) And you have a rightful claim to half what your wives have left if they have no child. b) But if they, have a child, then you are entitled to one quarter only of what they have left after a legacy, they might have bequeathed, has been paid besides a due debt. c) And your wives shall have a rightful claim to one quarter of what you have left in the event you have no child. d) But if you have a child then one eighth only of what you have left goes to them after a legacy, you might have bequeathed, has been paid besides a due debt. e) And if the deceased, a man or a woman, has no immediate heirs, but only a maternal brother and/or a sister then each of them shall have a rightful claim to one sixth. f) But if the maternal brothers and/or sisters are more than two, then they go shares in the one third, man and woman alike, after a legacy which might have been bequeathed has been paid besides a due debt, without prejudice to any of the heirs' rights or claims. This is an authoritative commendation decreed by Allah; Allah is 'Alimun and Hakimun.
