An-Nisa 176: They ask you for a ruling (fatwa). Tell them; “Allah proclaims Allah’s ruling on the inheritance of a person who has no parents and no children as follows; if a person without children dies and this person has a sister, half of whatever the person has left is hers. If the sister dies and also has no children, then the brother is the inheritor. If there are two sisters, they inherit two thirds of what is left behind (by the brothers). If there are many siblings, consisting of brothers and sisters, then the male receives the equivalent of the share of two females.” Allah explains (these) in detail to you, so that you do not make mistake. Allah is All-Knowing.

Tafsir
They ask you for a fatwa about the Kalalee, say: Allah gives you a fatwa about the one who has no father and no child. If a person dies without a child or a father, and he has a sister, whether paternal or maternal, or only paternal, half of the inheritance of the deceased belongs to her. The rest is given to a needy relative. If there are no relatives, the remaining inheritance is given to the sister. If this sister also dies and she has no children, her brother will inherit her.
If there are two sisters, two thirds of the estate of the deceased brother belongs to them. If the deceased has more siblings, both male and female, then the boys get two shares and the girls get one share.
This is how Allah explains His Verses to people so that there can be no disagreement between them and so that they can be allocated with justice.
What is said in the video
Of Surah An-Nisa,
verse 176 is where we have come.
The verse is a bit long. They ask you for a ruling. Say, it says. Allah, about one who has no father and no child — about that person's inheritance — explains the ruling as follows. Allah, about the one who has no father and no child — about his inheritance — explains the ruling as follows. If a person with no child dies and has a sister, half of what he leaves is hers. The sister's. He has one sister.
No one else. Let's say. It goes to his sister. Half of it. Now, the sister is dead. If she has no child, the brother becomes her heir. The sister has no child. She has a brother. This time the brother becomes her heir.
If the sibling dies and has no child, the brother becomes the heir. If there are two sisters, two thirds of what the brother leaves is theirs.
The male is heir (?). If the girls die, what does it say? The brother becomes her heir. If there are two sisters, two thirds of what the brother leaves is theirs. The girls', that is. If there are more siblings, both men and women, the man's share equals that of two women. Allah explains to you so that you do not go astray. Allah knows all things, it says. For example, let's say there are three men and five girls. The numbers are large. If the men take two shares and the girls one share, how does the calculation go? The men, two each: two, four, six — three men, six, and there are five girls: eleven.
The share is divided into eleven, the estate is divided into eleven. Out of the eleven parts, the men take two each — their six shares — and the girls take one share each from it. For example, let's say the father left one hundred and twenty-five lira. 125 lira. How will 3 men and 2 women share this money?
3 men, 5 women. How will 3 men and 5 women share it? Now, we will divide 125 by 6. By 6. We will divide by 11. Sorry. 3 men make 6, with the 5 girls, eleven. One hundred and twenty-five, when we divide by eleven —
what does it come to, when we divide by eleven? Is there a calculator? Or let's put it this way: let's say he left one hundred and ten lira. One hundred and ten lira. When we divide by eleven — in one hundred and eleven, how many times does eleven go? It goes ten times. In one hundred and eleven eleven, ten times, makes one hundred and eleven. Now the men take twenty each. Twenty, forty, sixty — the men took. And the women take ten each. Ten, twenty, thirty, forty, fifty. That makes one hundred and ten. Yes. It is shared out in this way.
They ask you for a ruling about kalalah. Say: Allah, about one who has no father and no child, gives you a ruling. About one who has no father and no child. Namely: if a person dies without a child or father and has a full sister, or a sister by the father only, then for that sister, half of the deceased's estate belongs to her.
The remainder is given to those in need among the relatives. To those in need among the relatives. If there are no relatives, this remaining inheritance is also given to this sister. If this sister dies too, and she has no children, the brother becomes her heir. Yes.
If he has two sisters, of what their deceased brother left, two thirds belong to these sisters. Two thirds. If the deceased has more siblings, both men and women, the men two, the girls one — that is what they take. As we calculated just now. So that disputes among people are removed and the division can be made justly, Allah thus explains His verses to people.
In this way we have finished Surah An-Nisa.
