يَسْتَفْتُونَكَ They seek your ruling قُلِ Say ٱللَّهُ Allah يُفْتِيكُمْ gives you a ruling فِى concerning ٱلْكَلَـٰلَةِ ۚ the Kalala إِنِ if ٱمْرُؤٌا۟ a man هَلَكَ died لَيْسَ (and) not لَهُۥ he has وَلَدٌۭ a child وَلَهُۥٓ and he has أُخْتٌۭ a sister فَلَهَا then for her نِصْفُ (is) a half مَا (of) what تَرَكَ ۚ he left وَهُوَ And he يَرِثُهَآ will inherit from her إِن if لَّمْ not يَكُن is لَّهَا for her وَلَدٌۭ ۚ a child فَإِن But if كَانَتَا there were ٱثْنَتَيْنِ two females فَلَهُمَا then for them ٱلثُّلُثَانِ two thirds مِمَّا of what تَرَكَ ۚ he left وَإِن But if كَانُوٓا۟ they were إِخْوَةًۭ brothers and sisters رِّجَالًۭا men وَنِسَآءًۭ and women فَلِلذَّكَرِ then the male will have مِثْلُ like حَظِّ share ٱلْأُنثَيَيْنِ ۗ (of) the two females يُبَيِّنُ makes clear ٱللَّهُ Allah لَكُمْ to you أَن lest تَضِلُّوا۟ ۗ you go astray وَٱللَّهُ And Allah بِكُلِّ of every شَىْءٍ thing عَلِيمٌۢ (is) All-Knower ١٧٦

They request from you a [legal] ruling. Say, "Allāh gives you a ruling concerning one having neither descendants nor ascendants [as heirs]." If a man dies, leaving no child but [only] a sister, she will have half of what he left. And he inherits from her if she [dies and] has no child. But if there are two sisters [or more], they will have two thirds of what he left. If there are both brothers and sisters, the male will have the share of two females. Allāh makes clear to you [His law], lest you go astray. And Allāh is Knowing of all things.

5. Surah Al-Ma'idah

The Table Spread · Madani · 120 Ayahs

بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ

5:1

يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا O ٱلَّذِينَ you (who) ءَامَنُوٓا۟ believe أَوْفُوا۟ Fulfil بِٱلْعُقُودِ ۚ the contracts أُحِلَّتْ Are made lawful لَكُم for you بَهِيمَةُ the quadruped ٱلْأَنْعَـٰمِ (of) the grazing livestock إِلَّا except مَا what يُتْلَىٰ is recited عَلَيْكُمْ on you غَيْرَ not مُحِلِّى being permitted ٱلصَّيْدِ (to) hunt وَأَنتُمْ while you حُرُمٌ ۗ (are in) Ihram إِنَّ Indeed ٱللَّهَ Allah يَحْكُمُ decrees مَا what يُرِيدُ He wills ١

O you who have believed, fulfill [all] contracts. Lawful for you are the animals of grazing livestock except for that which is recited to you [in this Qur’ān] - hunting not being permitted while you are in the state of iḥrām. Indeed, Allāh ordains what He intends.

5:2

يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا O ٱلَّذِينَ you (who) ءَامَنُوا۟ believe لَا (Do) not تُحِلُّوا۟ violate شَعَـٰٓئِرَ (the) rites ٱللَّهِ (of) Allah وَلَا and not ٱلشَّهْرَ the month ٱلْحَرَامَ the sacred وَلَا and not ٱلْهَدْىَ the sacrificial animals وَلَا and not ٱلْقَلَـٰٓئِدَ the garlanded وَلَآ and not ءَآمِّينَ (those) coming ٱلْبَيْتَ (to) the House ٱلْحَرَامَ the Sacred يَبْتَغُونَ seeking فَضْلًۭا Bounty مِّن of رَّبِّهِمْ their Lord وَرِضْوَٰنًۭا ۚ and good pleasure وَإِذَا And when حَلَلْتُمْ you come out of Ihram فَٱصْطَادُوا۟ ۚ then (you may) hunt وَلَا And let not يَجْرِمَنَّكُمْ incite you شَنَـَٔانُ (the) hatred قَوْمٍ (for) a people أَن as صَدُّوكُمْ they stopped you عَنِ from ٱلْمَسْجِدِ Al-Masjid ٱلْحَرَامِ Al-Haraam أَن that تَعْتَدُوا۟ ۘ you commit transgression وَتَعَاوَنُوا۟ And help one another عَلَى in ٱلْبِرِّ [the] righteousness وَٱلتَّقْوَىٰ ۖ and [the] piety وَلَا but (do) not تَعَاوَنُوا۟ help one another عَلَى in ٱلْإِثْمِ [the] sin وَٱلْعُدْوَٰنِ ۚ and [the] transgression وَٱتَّقُوا۟ And fear ٱللَّهَ ۖ Allah إِنَّ indeed ٱللَّهَ Allah شَدِيدُ (is) severe ٱلْعِقَابِ (in) [the] punishment ٢

O you who have believed, do not violate the rites of Allāh or [the sanctity of] the sacred month or [neglect the marking of] the sacrificial animals and garlanding [them] or [violate the safety of] those coming to the Sacred House seeking bounty from their Lord and [His] approval. But when you come out of iḥrām, then [you may] hunt. And do not let the hatred of a people for having obstructed you from al-Masjid al-Ḥarām lead you to transgress. And cooperate in righteousness and piety, but do not cooperate in sin and aggression. And fear Allāh; indeed, Allāh is severe in penalty.
