Men receive a share of what their parents and relatives leave, and women receive a share of what their parents and relatives leave; be it little or much-a legal share.
Must sisters or daughters give up their inheritance share to keep family peace?
Key findingsEditorial
One finding for each passage this study carries, in the order the study reads them. Each is the reason that passage was signed into the study, in full and unedited - including, where the renderings disagree, the disagreement.
- 01 4:7 Itani has "women receive a share of what their parents and relatives leave", and closes "be it little or much-a legal share". Sale has "a determinate part is due to them".
- 02 4:11 Itani has "If there is only one, she gets one-half", and Pickthall has "if there be women more than two, then theirs is two-thirds of the inheritance". The verse names the shares as God's: Itani has "This is God's Law".
In plain wordsEditorial written by the editors, not a translation
None of the five renders a verse that asks a sister or a daughter to give up her share of an inheritance, for family peace or for any other reason.
What the five print is that the share is hers. At 4:7 Itani has "women receive a share of what their parents and relatives leave", and the verse closes with "a legal share" in Itani's words. Sale has "a determinate part is due to them".
At 4:11 the shares of daughters are set out, and the verse names them as God's: Itani has "This is God's Law", and Pickthall has "It is an injunction from Allah".
The question speaks of family peace, and these verses do not. They print the share and whose it is; they say nothing of a share given up under pressure.
Whether an heir may freely give a share to another, and how, is a matter of jurisprudence, a layer this platform does not hold or show. This study does not answer it.
Scope of this study
This platform shows the verse, its easy-read line, its translations, a plain-words reading, and each verse among its neighbours. It does not supply occasion of revelation, interpretation (tafsir) or history, and it never invents them.
What this rests on
Opens with 4:7, widening across 2 passages in all.
Easy-read is a simplified pronunciation, not authoritative — a rule-by-rule romanisation, not a reading. Each verse ends in its pause form, as it is said when you stop there. Pauses inside a verse and other tajwid rules are not shown. It is derived from the Tanzil Simple edition, while the Arabic above is the Uthmani edition; both are cleared, but they are not the same edition and their orthography differs.
The versesSource fact 2 passages, each with every cleared translation
2 passages, chosen for this question and signed as part of it. Each carries the reason it is here, and each renders in full: the Arabic, then every cleared translation of that verse under its translator's name.
Each verse opens on the translation that comes first in the site's fixed order, which runs from the newest translation to the oldest. The order is not a preference. Open Compare translations on any verse to read the others.

Unto the men (of a family) belongeth a share of that which parents and near kindred leave, and unto the women a share of that which parents and near kindred leave, whether it be little or much - a legal share
Men should have a portion of what their parents and kindred leave, and women should have a portion of what their parents and kindred leave, whether it be little or much, a determined portion
Men ought to have a part of what their parents and kindred leave; and women a part of what their parents and kindred leave: whether it be little or much, let them have a stated portion
Men ought to have a part of what their parents and kindred leave behind them when they die: And women also ought to have a part of what their parents and kindred leave, whether it be little, or whether it be much; a determinate part is due to them

Test the orphans until they reach the age of marriage. If you find them to be mature enough, hand over their properties to them. And do not consume it extravagantly or hastily before they grow up.

And make trial of orphans until they reach the age of marriage; and if ye perceive in them a sound judgment, then hand over their substance to them; but consume ye it not wastefully, or by hastily entrusting it to them; Because they are growing up.

And when ye make over their substance to them, then take witnesses in their presence: God also maketh a sufficient account
And examine the orphans until they attain the age of marriage: But if ye perceive they are able to manage their affairs well, deliver their substance unto them; and waste it not extravagantly, or hastily, because they grow up.

Those who are concerned about the fate of their weak children, in case they leave them behind, should fear God, and speak appropriate words.
And let those fear (in their behaviour toward orphans) who if they left behind them weak offspring would be afraid for them. So let them mind their duty to Allah, and speak justly
And let these fear lest they leave behind them a weak seed, for whom they would be afraid; and let them fear God, and speak a straightforward speech
And let those be afraid to wrong the orphans, who, should they leave behind them weakly offspring, would be solicitous on their account. Let them, therefore, fear God, and let them propose what is right
And let those fear to abuse orphans, who if they leave behind them a weak off-spring, are sollicitous for them: let them therefore fear God, and speak that which is convenient

God instructs you regarding your children: The male receives the equivalent of the share of two females. If they are daughters, more than two, they get two-thirds of what he leaves. If there is only one, she gets one-half. As for the parents, each gets one-sixth of what he leaves, if he had children.

Allah chargeth you concerning (the provision for) your children: to the male the equivalent of the portion of two females, and if there be women more than two, then theirs is two-thirds of the inheritance, and if there be one (only) then the half. And to each of his parents a sixth of the inheritance, if he have a son; and if he have no son and his parents are his heirs, then to his mother appertaineth the third; and if he have brethren, then to his mother appertaineth the sixth, after any legacy he may have bequeathed, or debt (hath been paid). Your parents and your children: Ye know not which of them is nearer unto you in usefulness. It is an injunction from Allah. Lo! Allah is Knower, Wise
God instructs you concerning your children; for a male the like of the portion of two females, and if there be women above two, then let them have two-thirds of what (the deceased) leaves; and if there be but one, then let her have a half; and as to the parents, to each of them a sixth of what he leaves, if he has a son; but if he have no son, and his parents inherit, then let his mother have a third, and if he have brethren, let his mother have a sixth after payment of the bequest he bequeaths and of his debt.

And the parents of the deceased shall have each of them a sixth part of what he shall leave, if he have a child: But if he have no child, and his parents be his heirs, then his mother shall have the third part. And if he have brethren, his mother shall have a sixth part, after the legacies which he shall bequeath, and his debts be paid. Ye know not whether your parents or your children be of greater use unto you. This is an ordinance from God, and God is knowing and wise

Allahu ju urdhëron në lidhje me trashëgiminë e fëmijëve tuaj: mashkullit i takon aq sa u takon dy femrave. Mirëpo, nëse (trashëgimtarë) janë dy a më shumë vajza, atëherë atyre u takojnë dy të tretat e asaj që lë pas (i vdekuri). E, nëse është vetëm një (vajzë), atëherë asaj i takon gjysma. Sa u përket prindërve, çdonjërit prej tyre i takon një e gjashta nga ajo që lë pas (i vdekuri), në qoftë se ka fëmijë. Mirëpo, nëse ai nuk ka fëmijë dhe e trashëgojnë prindërit, atëherë nënës së tij i bie një e treta (kurse babait pjesa tjetër). Ndërkaq, nëse ka vëllezër (ose motra), atëherë nënës së tij i bie një e gjashta (e pjesa e mbetur babait). Tërë kjo pas përmbushjes së porosisë (testamentit) që ka lënë dhe shlyerjes së borxhit[5]. Ju nuk e dini se a janë më të dobishëm për ju prindërit tuaj apo fëmijët tuaj. Ky është caktim i detyrueshëm nga Allahu. Pa dyshim, Allahu është i Gjithëdijshëm dhe i Urtë.
আল্লাহ তোমাদের সন্তানদের (উত্তরাধিকারের) ব্যাপারে নির্দেশ দিচ্ছেন যে, এক পুত্রের অংশ দুই কন্যার অংশের সমান; কিন্তু শুধু তারা (ওয়ারিশরা) যদি কন্যা সন্তান হয় এবং তারা যদি দুয়ের অধিক হয়, তবে তারা পরিত্যক্ত সম্পত্তির তিন ভাগের দু’ভাগ পাবে। আর (মৃত ব্যক্তি যদি) একমাত্র কন্যা রেখে যায়, তবে সে (পরিত্যক্ত সম্পত্তির) অর্ধেক পাবে। (মৃত ব্যক্তির) সন্তান থাকলে তার পিতা-মাতা প্রত্যেকের জন্য পরিত্যক্ত সম্পত্তির ছয় ভাগের এক ভাগ; কিন্তু সে নিঃসন্তান হলে এবং পিতা-মাতাই উত্তরাধিকারী হলে তার মাতার জন্য তিন ভাগের এক ভাগ(১); তার ভাই-বোন থাকলে মাতার জন্য ছয় ভাগের এক ভাগ(২)। এভাবে ওয়ারিশি সম্পদ বণ্টন করতে হবে মৃত ব্যক্তি যদি অসিয়ত করে যায় কিংবা কোন ঋণ রেখে যায়, তবে সেগুলো পরিশোধ করার পর। তোমরা জানো না যে, তোমাদের পিতামাতা ও সন্তানদের মধ্যে (দুনিয়া ও আখিরাতে) উপকারে কে তোমাদের বেশি নিকটবর্তী। (উত্তরাধিকার বণ্টনের) এ বিধান আল্লাহ কর্তৃক নির্ধারিত। নিশ্চয় আল্লাহ সর্বজ্ঞানী, প্রজ্ঞাময়।
Allah vam nalaže, u vezi s djecom vašom, da muškom pripadne dio jednak dijelu dvoje ženske djece zajedno. A ako bude više od dvoje ženske djece, njima pripadaju dvije trećine onoga što je umrli ostavio, a ako je samo jedno žensko, pripada joj polovina. A roditeljima, svakome posebno, pripada šestina od onoga što je ostavio ako ima djece. A ako ne bude imao djece, i naslijede ga roditelji, onda njegovoj majci pripada trećina. A ako ima braće, onda njegovoj majci pripada šestina, pošto se izvrši oporuka koju je ostavio ili podmiri dug. Vi ne znate ko vam je bliži po koristi, roditelji vaši ili sinovi vaši. To je Allahova zapovijed, a Allah je, doista, Onaj Koji sve zna i mudar je.

ალლაჰი გიბრძანებთ თქვენს შვილებთან დაკავშირებით: ვაჟს ეკუთვნის წილი (მემკვიდრეობიდან), რომელიც უდრის ორი ქალის წილს. ხოლო თუ ისინი [შვილები] მხოლოდ ქალები არიან და მათი რიცხვი ორზე მეტია, მაშინ მათ ეკუთვნით ორი მესამედი იმისა, რაც მან [გარდაცვლილმა] დატოვა. და თუ იგი [ქალიშვილი] მხოლოდ ერთია, მაშინ მას ეკუთვნის ნახევარი. მის მშობლებს კი (თითოეულს ამ ორთაგან) ეკუთვნის მეექვსედი იმისა, რაც მან დატოვა, თუ მას ჰყავს შვილი. ხოლო თუ მას [გარდაცვლილს] შვილი არ ჰყავს და მისი მემკვიდრეები მხოლოდ მშობლები არიან, მაშინ დედას ეკუთვნის ერთი მესამედი (და მამას — დანარჩენი). და თუ მას ჰყავს ძმები, მაშინ დედას ეკუთვნის მეექვსედი (მემკვიდრეობიდან).

Allah empfiehlt euch hinsichtlich eurer Kinder: Dem Männlichen kommt so viel zu wie der Anteil von zwei Weiblichen. Wenn es aber (ausschließlich) Frauen sind, mehr als zwei, dann stehen ihnen zwei Drittel dessen zu, was er hinterlässt; wenn es (nur) eine (Weibliche) ist, dann steht ihr die Hälfte zu. Und den Eltern steht jedem ein Sechstel von dem zu, was er hinterlässt, wenn er Kinder haben sollte. Sollte er aber keine Kinder haben und seine Eltern ihn beerben, dann steht seiner Mutter ein Drittel zu. Sollte er Brüder haben, dann steht seiner Mutter (in diesem Fall) ein Sechstel zu. (Das alles) nach (Abzug) eines (etwaigen) Vermächtnisses, das er festgesetzt hat, oder (vorhandenen) Schuld(en). Eure Väter und eure Söhne - ihr wisst nicht, wer von ihnen euch an Nutzen näher steht. (Das alles gilt für euch) als Verpflichtung von Allah. Wahrlich, Allah ist allwissend und allweise.
Ο Αλλάχ σάς διατάζει σχετικά με την κληρονομιά των παιδιών σας: για το αρσενικό (ένα μερίδιο που είναι) ίσο με το μερίδιο δύο θηλυκών. Αν υπάρχουν μόνο κόρες, δύο ή περισσότερες, παίρνουν τα δύο τρίτα από ό,τι άφησε (ο θανόντας από περιουσία), αλλά αν είναι μόνο μία (κόρη), παίρνει τη μισή. Όσο για τους γονείς του, ο καθένας τους δικαιούται το ένα έκτο από ό,τι άφησε (από περιουσία) εάν άφησε απογόνους, αλλά αν δεν άφησε απογόνους και οι γονείς του είναι οι μόνοι κληρονόμοι, η μητέρα του παίρνει το ένα τρίτο (και ο πατέρας του το υπόλοιπο), αλλά αν έχει αδέρφια (άνδρες ή γυναίκες), η μητέρα του παίρνει το ένα έκτο (και ο πατέρας του το υπόλοιπο, και δεν παίρνουν κάτι τα αδέρφια του), και (αυτή η διανομή της κληρονομιάς γίνεται) μετά την εκτέλεση της διαθήκης που την είχε κάνει (ο θανόντας, και εφόσον η διαθήκη του δεν υπερβαίνει το ένα τρίτο της περιουσίας του) και μετά από την εξόφληση του χρέους (του, αν είχε). Οι γονείς σας και τα παιδιά σας, δεν ξέρετε ποιος απ' αυτούς θα σας ωφελήσει περισσότερο. (Αυτή η διανομή είναι) ένα καθήκον (σ' εσάς) από τον Αλλάχ. Πράγματι, ο Αλλάχ είναι ‘Αλείμ (Παντογνώστης) και Χακείμ (Πάνσοφος).
अल्लाह तुम्हारे संतान के संबंध में तुम्हें आदेश देता है कि पुत्र का हिस्सा, दो पुत्रियों के बराबर है। यदि (दो या) दो से अधिक पुत्रियाँ[7] ही हों, तो उनके लिए छोड़े हुए धन का दो तिहाई हिस्सा है। और यदि एक ही (लड़की) हो, तो उसके लिए आधा हिस्सा है। और अगर उस (मृतक) की कोई संतान है, तो उसके माता-पिता में से प्रत्येक के लिए उसके छोड़े हुए धन का छठवाँ हिस्सा है। और यदि उसकी कोई संतान नहीं[8] है और उसके वारिस उसके माता-पिता ही हों, तो उसकी माँ के लिए तिहाई (हिस्सा)[9] है (और शेष पिता का होगा)। फिर यदि (माता पिता के सिवा) उसके (एक से अधिक) भाई (या बहन) हों, तो उसकी माँ के लिए छठवाँ हिस्सा है, यह (विरासत का बंटवारा) उस (मृतक) की वसिय्यत[10] का निष्पादन करने, या उसका क़र्ज़ चुकाने के बाद होगा। तुम्हारे बाप हों या तुम्हारे बेटे, तुम नहीं जानते कि उनमें से कौन तुम्हारे लिए अधिक लाभदायक है। यह अल्लाह का निर्धारित किया हुआ हिस्सा है। निःसंदेह अल्लाह सब कुछ जानने वाला और हिकमत वाला है।
Ecco ciò che Allāh vi raccomanda riguardo i vostri figli: al maschio la parte di due femmine. Se si tratta di femmine, più di due, avranno due terzi di quanto lasciato. E se fosse una, avrà la metà. E ai genitori andrà a ognuno un sesto di quanto ha lasciato, se ha lasciato un figlio. Se non ha un figlio, lo ereditino i genitori: sua madre avrà un terzo; se ha fratelli, sua madre avrà un sesto, dopo aver fatto il testamento ed estinto un debito. I vostri padri o i vostri figli, voi non sapete quali sono i più benevoli verso di voi. Quella è una legge di Allāh, e in verità Allāh è Sapiente, Saggio.
11. Allahas įsako tai, kas susiję su jūsų vaikų (palikimu): vyrams – dalis, lygi dviem moterų dalims. Jei (yra) tik dukros, dvi arba daugiau, jų dalis yra du trečdaliai palikimo, jei tik viena – jos dalis yra pusė. Tėvams – kiekvienam šeštadalis palikimo, jei mirusysis paliko vaikų. Jei vaikų nėra ir tėvai yra (vieninteliai) paveldėtojai, motina gauna trečdalį. Jei mirusysis paliko brolius (arba seseris), motina gauna šeštadalį. (Dalybos visais atvejais yra) po palikimo, kurį jis galėjo palikti testamentu, arba skolų išmokėjimo. Jūs nežinote kurie iš jų, jūsų tėvai ar jūsų vaikai, yra artimiausi jums naudoje. Ir Allahas yra Visada Visa Žinantis, Visa Išmanantis.

Аллах заповедует вам о ваших детях: мужчине — доля, равная доле двух женщин. А если дети — только женского пола и их больше двух, то им — две трети из того, что он оставил. А если она одна, то ей — половина. А его родителям, если у него есть ребёнок, — каждому из них по одной шестой из того, что он оставил. Если же у него нет ребёнка и наследуют его родители, то его матери — треть. А если у него есть братья, то его матери — одна шестая, после исполнения завещания, которое он завещал, или выплаты долга. Ваши отцы и ваши сыновья — вы не знаете, кто из них ближе вам по пользе. Это — в качестве предписания от Аллаха. Воистину, Аллах всегда был [и пребудет] знающим, мудрым.
Аллах вам налаже, у вези са вашом децом, да мушком следује колико за два женска детета. А ако буде више од двоје женске деце, њима припадају две трећине онога што је оставио, а ако је само једна, припада јој половина. А родитељима, свакоме посебно, припада шестина од онога што је умрли оставио, ако има деце. А ако не буде имао деце, и наследе га родитељи, онда његовој мајци припада трећина. А ако има браће и (или) сестара, онда његовој мајци припада шестина пошто се изврши опорука коју је оставио, или подмири дуг. Ви не знате ко вам је пречи и битнији, родитељи ваши или синови ваши. То је Божја заповед, а Аллах, заиста, све зна и мудар је.
Mwenyezi Mungu anawausia juu ya watoto wenu: Fungu la mwanamume ni kama fungu la wanawake wawili. Na wakiwa ni wanawake zaidi ya wawili, basi wana theluthi mbili za alichokiacha maiti. Lakini akiwa mtoto mwanamke ni mmoja, basi fungu lake ni nusu. Na kwa wazazi wake wawili, kila mmoja wao apate sudusi moja katika kile alichokiacha, ikiwa ana mtoto. Na ikiwa hana mtoto, na wazazi wake wawili wakawa wanamrithi, basi mama yake atapata theluthi moja. Na ikiwa ana ndugu, basi mama yake atapata sudusi. Haya ni baada ya kutolewa alichousia au kulipa deni. Baba zenu na watoto wenu, nyinyi hamjui ni nani kati yao aliyekaribu zaidi kwenu kwa manufaa. Hiyo ni sheria iliyotoka kwa Mwenyezi Mungu. Bila ya shaka, Mwenyezi Mungu ni Mwenye kujua, Mwenye hekima.
Gud föreskriver för er beträffande era barn att en son ska få samma arvedel som två döttrar. Om det bara finns döttrar och de är fler än två, tillfaller dem två tredjedelar av kvarlåtenskapen. Finns det endast en dotter, tillfaller henne hälften. Föräldrarna får vardera en sjättedel om den [avlidne] hade barn. Om han inte hade några barn och föräldrarna är de enda arvingarna, får modern en tredjedel. Och om han hade syskon får modern en sjättedel, efter avdrag för testamente och skulder. Ni vet inte vem av era föräldrar eller era barn som är er till störst nytta. Detta är ett påbud från Gud. Gud är allvetande, vis.
Allah, size çocuklarınız(ın alacağı miras) hakkında bir erkeğe iki kadının payı kadarını emreder. (Çocuklar sadece) ikiden fazla kız iseler, (ölenin geriye) bıraktığının üçte ikisi onlarındır. Eğer kız bir ise (mirasın) yarısı onundur. Ölenin çocuğu varsa, geriye bıraktığı maldan, ana babasından her birinin altıda bir hissesi vardır. Eğer çocuğu yok da (yalnız) ana babası ona varis oluyorsa, anasına üçte bir düşer. Eğer kardeşleri varsa, anasının hissesi altıda birdir. (Bu paylaştırma, ölenin) yapacağı vasiyetten ya da borcundan sonradır. Babalarınız ve oğullarınızdan, hangisinin size daha faydalı olduğunu bilemezsiniz. Bunlar, Allah tarafından farz kılınmıştır. Şüphesiz Allah, hakkıyla bilendir, hüküm ve hikmet sahibidir.
اللہ تعالیٰ تمہیں تمہاری اوﻻد کے بارے میں حکم کرتا ہے کہ ایک لڑکے کا حصہ دو لڑکیوں کے برابر ہے[1] اور اگر صرف لڑکیاں ہی ہوں اور دو سے زیاده ہوں تو انہیں مال متروکہ کا دو تہائی ملے گا[2]۔ اور اگر ایک ہی لڑکی ہو تو اس کے لئے آدھا ہے اور میت کے ماں باپ میں سے ہر ایک کے لئے اس کے چھوڑے ہوئے مال کا چھٹا حصہ ہے، اگر اس (میت) کی اوﻻد ہو[3]، اور اگر اوﻻد نہ ہو اور ماں باپ وارث ہوتے ہوں تو اس کی ماں کے لئے تیسرا حصہ ہے[4]، ہاں اگر میت کے کئی بھائی ہوں تو پھر اس کی ماں کا چھٹا حصہ ہے[5]۔ یہ حصے اس وصیت (کی تکمیل) کے بعد ہیں جو مرنے واﻻ کر گیا ہو یا ادائے قرض کے بعد، تمہارے باپ ہوں یا تمہارے بیٹے تمہیں نہیں معلوم کہ ان میں سے کون تمہیں نفع پہچانے میں زیاده قریب ہے[6]، یہ حصے اللہ تعالیٰ کی طرف سے مقرر کرده ہیں بے شک اللہ تعالیٰ پورے علم اور کامل حکمتوں واﻻ ہے۔

The translators word this verse differently
Those who are concerned about the fate of their weak children, in case they leave them behind, should fear God, and speak appropriate words.
And let those fear (in their behaviour toward orphans) who if they left behind them weak offspring would be afraid for them. So let them mind their duty to Allah, and speak justly
And let these fear lest they leave behind them a weak seed, for whom they would be afraid; and let them fear God, and speak a straightforward speech
And let those be afraid to wrong the orphans, who, should they leave behind them weakly offspring, would be solicitous on their account. Let them, therefore, fear God, and let them propose what is right
And let those fear to abuse orphans, who if they leave behind them a weak off-spring, are sollicitous for them: let them therefore fear God, and speak that which is convenient

Those who consume the wealth of orphans illicitly consume only fire into their bellies; and they will roast in a Blaze.
Lo! Those who devour the wealth of orphans wrongfully, they do but swallow fire into their bellies, and they will be exposed to burning flame
Verily, those who devour the property of orphans unjustly, only devour into their bellies fire, and they shall broil in flames
Verily they who swallow the substance of the orphan wrongfully, shall swallow down only fire into their bellies, and shall burn in the flame
Surely they who devour the possessions of orphans unjustly, shall swallow down nothing but fire into their bellies, and shall broil in raging flames

And unto you belongeth a half of that which your wives leave, if they have no child; but if they have a child then unto you the fourth of that which they leave, after any legacy they may have bequeathed, or debt (they may have contracted, hath been paid). And unto them belongeth the fourth of that which ye leave if ye have no child, but if ye have a child then the eighth of that which ye leave, after any legacy ye may have bequeathed, or debt (ye may have contracted, hath been paid). And if a man or a woman have a distant heir (having left neither parent nor child), and he (or she) have a brother or a sister (only on the mother's side) then to each of them twain (the brother and the sister) the sixth, and if they be more than two, then they shall be sharers in the third, after any legacy that may have been bequeathed or debt (contracted) not injuring (the heirs by willing away more than a third of the heritage) hath been paid.

And ye shall have half of what your wives leave, if they have no son; but if they have a son, then ye shall have a fourth of what they leave, after payment of the bequests they bequeath or of their debts. And they shall have a fourth of what ye leave, if ye have no son; but if ye have a son, then let them have an eighth of what ye leave, after payment of the bequest ye bequeath and of your debts.

Half of what your wives leave shall be your's, if they have no issue; but if they have issue, then a fourth of what they leave shall be your's, after paying the bequests they shall bequeath, and debts.

They also shall have the fourth part of what ye shall leave, in case ye have no issue; but if ye have issue, then they shall have the eighth part of what ye shall leave, after the legacies which ye shall bequeath, and your debts be paid.

But if there be more than this number, they shall be equal sharers in a third part, after payment of the legacies which shall be bequeathed, and the debts, without prejudice to the heirs. This is an ordinance from God: And God is knowing and gracious
تِلْكَ حُدُودُ ٱللَّهِ وَمَن يُطِعِ ٱللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُۥ يُدْخِلْهُ جَنَّٰتٍ تَجْرِى مِن تَحْتِهَا ٱلْأَنْهَٰرُ خَٰلِدِينَ فِيهَا وَذَٰلِكَ ٱلْفَوْزُ ٱلْعَظِيمُ

These are the bounds set by God. Whoever obeys God and His Messenger, He will admit him into Gardens beneath which rivers flow, to abide therein forever. That is the great attainment.
These are the limits (imposed by) Allah. Whoso obeyeth Allah and His messenger, He will make him enter Gardens underneath which rivers flow, where such will dwell for ever. That will be the great success
These be God's bounds, and whoso obeys God and the Apostle He will make him enter into gardens beneath which rivers flow, and they shall dwell therein for aye;- that is the mighty happiness
These are the precepts of God; and whoso obeyeth God and his prophet, him shall God bring into gardens beneath whose shades the rivers flow, therein to abide for ever: and this, the great blessedness
These are the statutes of God. And whoso obeyeth God and his apostle, God shall lead him into gardens wherein rivers flow, they shall continue therein for ever; and this shall be great happiness
What this study rests on, and what it refusessigned with it1 of the 1 paragraphs signed with this study
The selection above and this account of it are part of what was signed. Where the renderings disagree it says so; where the question runs past what has cleared the rights audit it says that too.
The anchors are the verse that gives women a share in their own right (4:7) and the verse that sets out the shares of daughters (4:11). The question speaks of family peace; neither verse does. This study does not say whether an heir may freely give a share to another, or how. That question belongs to jurisprudence, a layer this platform does not hold or show.
