f:854 -    Does the daughter not receive a share in inheritance because of marriage
Country : Hyderabad, India,
Name : Shoukath Rabbani Begum
Question:     Asak, my parents are not giving share of property because they are saying that they have done my marriage and hence they will not give share to me and all the share will go to my brothers, is this correct, kindly answer, thanks
............................................................................
Answer:     If the parents are distributing their property in their life itself, then they should be just and give an equal share to all children.  If a son/daughter is financially weak, they may give an extra share as well.

However, if the property is distributed after their death, then the inheritance will be distributed as per the injunctions given in the Holy Quran and the Hadith only.

And Allah Most High knows best.
