Sura 4:11: "A male shall inherit twice as much as a female. If there be more than two girls, they shall have two thirds of the inheritance, but if there be one only, she shall inherit the half..."

If a man or a woman leave neither children nor parents and have a brother or a sister, they shall each inherit one sixth..."
