يُوصِيكُمُ ٱللَّهُ فِىٓ أَوۡلَـٰدِڪُمۡۖ لِلذَّكَرِ مِثۡلُ حَظِّ ٱلۡأُنثَيَيۡنِۚ فَإِن كُنَّ نِسَآءً۬ فَوۡقَ ٱثۡنَتَيۡنِ فَلَهُنَّ ثُلُثَا مَا تَرَكَۖ وَإِن كَانَتۡ وَٲحِدَةً۬ فَلَهَا ٱلنِّصۡفُۚ وَلِأَبَوَيۡهِ لِكُلِّ وَٲحِدٍ۬ مِّنۡہُمَا ٱلسُّدُسُ مِمَّا تَرَكَ إِن كَانَ لَهُ ۥ وَلَدٌ۬ۚ فَإِن لَّمۡ يَكُن لَّهُ ۥ وَلَدٌ۬ وَوَرِثَهُ ۥۤ أَبَوَاهُ فَلِأُمِّهِ ٱلثُّلُثُۚ فَإِن كَانَ لَهُ ۥۤ إِخۡوَةٌ۬ فَلِأُمِّهِ ٱلسُّدُسُۚ مِنۢ بَعۡدِ وَصِيَّةٍ۬ يُوصِى بِہَآ أَوۡ دَيۡنٍۗ ءَابَآؤُكُمۡ وَأَبۡنَآؤُكُمۡ لَا تَدۡرُونَ أَيُّهُمۡ أَقۡرَبُ لَكُمۡ نَفۡعً۬اۚ فَرِيضَةً۬ مِّنَ ٱللَّهِۗ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ كَانَ عَلِيمًا حَكِيمً۬ا (١١)]
Why "MA" and "MIMMA" are used in 4:11
Please help understanding it.
Thank you
peace Novice,
like "please excuse my dear aunt sally" order of operations in a math equation: parentheses, exponents, multiplication, division, addition, subtraction (tells what to do first). It's important to remember any sole inheritor/s daughter/s, son/s, etc., get the whole.
if two or more classes need to ensure who gets paid first
e.g., parent 1/6 مما
mimma/from what ترك left ان if كان be له for him (said person) ولد offspring
1/6 parent fixed payoff taken "from what left" i.e., the whole, 5/6 remainder
five daughters and son فلهن so for them ثلثا third dual (2/3) ما
ma/what ترك left
5/9 (2/3*5/6) five daughters (1/9 each) NOT 2/3 taken from the whole
5/18 son (remainder/unstated always variable)
examples no offspring 4:12
ولكم and for you (pl.) نصف half ما
ma/what ترك left ازوجكم spouses yours (pl.)
ولهن and for them (pl.) الربع the fourth مما
mimma/from what تركتم left you (pl.)
father unstated (only one variable allowed), mother 1/3 (4:11)
1/3 mother fixed pay off taken from the whole
1/4 wife fixed pay off taken "from what left" i.e., the whole
5/12 father (remainder)
NOT payoff wife 1/4 then take 3/4 remainder give father twice as to mother
1/3 mother fixed pay off taken from the whole, 2/3 remainder
1/3 husband "what left" of 2/3 remainder (1/2*2/3 = 1/3)
1/3 father (remainder)
NOT payoff husband 1/2 then take 1/2 give father twice as to mother
that’s case if parents are alone 1/3 mother and 2/3 father (remainder)
