How to divide father’s property?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Darulifta-Deoband.com
My father died some 4 years back and has left some property. Please let us know how to share father’s property? He is survived by my one stepmother, 2 brothers one stepsister and 2 stepbrothers. Please advise the sharing percentage.

Answer

(Fatwa: 1108/934/B=1432)

If both of you and stepbrothers and sisters are from the same father, then all the property of deceased shall be divided into 72 shares as per the Shariah. Your mother shall get 9 shares, 14-14 shares will be given to each son and 7 shares to the daughter. The detail of distribution is as follows:

Detail:
Wife: 1×09 = 09
Sons: 4×14 = 56
Daughter: 1×07 = 07
Total: 73 Shares
