Und euch steht die Hälfte vom dem zu, was eure Gattinnen hinterlassen, wenn sie keine Kinder haben. Wenn sie jedoch Kinder haben, dann steht euch ein Viertel von dem zu, was sie hinterlassen. (Das alles) nach (Abzug) eines (etwaigen) Vermächtnisses, das sie festgesetzt haben, oder einer Schuld. Und ihnen steht ein Viertel von dem zu, was ihr hinterlaßt, wenn ihr keine Kinder habt. Wenn ihr jedoch Kinder habt, dann steht ihnen ein Achtel von dem zu, was ihr hinterlaßt. (Das alles) nach (Abzug) eines (etwaigen) Vermächtnisses, das ihr festgesetzt habt, oder einer Schuld. Und wenn ein Mann oder eine Frau ohne Eltern oder Kinder beerbt wird und er (bzw. sie) einen (Halb)bruder oder eine (Halb)schwester (mütterlicherseits) hat, dann steht jedem von beiden ein Sechstel zu. Wenn es jedoch mehr als dies sind, dann sollen sie Teilhaber an einem Drittel sein. (Das alles) nach (Abzug) eines (etwaigen) Vermächtnisses, das festgesetzt worden ist, oder einer Schuld, ohne Schädigung. (Das alles ist euch) anbefohlen von Allah. Allah ist Allwissend und Nachsichtig.

Und es steht ihnen ein Viertel dessen, was ihr hinterlaßt, zu, wenn ihr keine Kinder habt. Wenn ihr Kinder habt, dann steht ihnen ein Achtel dessen, was ihr hinterlaßt, zu, und zwar nach Berücksichtigung eines Testamentes, das ihr etwa gemacht habt, oder einer (bestehenden) Schuld. Und wenn ein Mann oder eine Frau von seitlichen Verwandten beerbt wird und er einen Bruder oder eine Schwester hat, dann steht einem jeden von ihnen ein Sechstel zu. Sind es mehr, dann teilen sie sich in ein Drittel, und zwar nach Berücksichtigung eines Testamentes, das er etwa gemacht hat, oder einer (bestehenden) Schuld. Es soll kein Schaden zugefügt werden. (Dies ist) ein Auftrag von Seiten Gottes. Gott weiß Bescheid und ist langmütig.
Your share in the property the wives leave behind is half if they die without an issue, but in case they have left children, then your share is one-fourth after the payment of legacies and debts; and your wife shall inherit one-fourth of what you leave at death if you die childless, if not, she will get one-eighth of what you leave behind after payment of legacies and debts. If a man or a woman should die without leaving either children or parents behind but have brother and sister, they shall each inherit one-sixth. In case there are more, they will share one-third of the estate after payment of legacies and debts without prejudice to others. This is the decree of God who knows all and is kind.

You shall inherit one half of your wives' estate if they leave no child, but if they leave behind a child then you will get one fourth of their estate, after fulfilling the terms of their last will and the payment of debts. Your wives shall inherit one fourth if you leave no child behind you; but if you leave a child, then they shall get one-eighth of your estate; after fulfilling the terms of your last will and the payment of debts. If a man or a woman leaves neither ascendant nor descendants but has left a brother or a sister, they shall each inherit one sixth, but if they are more than two, they shall share one third of the estate; after fulfilling the terms of the last will and the payment of debts; without prejudice to the rights of the heirs.

Allah enjoins you concerning your children: for the male is the equal of the portion of two females; but if there be more than two females, two-thirds of what the deceased leaves is theirs; and if there be one, for her is the half.

Your parents and your children, you know not which of them is the nearer of you in benefit. This is an ordinance from Allah. Allah is surely ever Knowing, Wise.
If your wives die without any surviving children, you will inherit half of their legacy. If they have children, you will inherit one-fourth of their legacy after the debts and things bequeathed have been excluded from the legacy.

If there are more than just a brother or a sister, they will share one-third of the legacy. This is after the payment of any debts and things bequeathed have been excluded from the legacy, so that no one will be caused to suffer any loss. It is a guide from God, the All-knowing and Forbearing.
