4.7

لِلرِّجَالِ نَصِیْبٌ مِّمَّا تَرَكَ الْوَالِدٰنِ وَ الْاَقْرَبُوْنَ ۪- وَ لِلنِّسَآءِ نَصِیْبٌ مِّمَّا تَرَكَ الْوَالِدٰنِ وَ الْاَقْرَبُوْنَ مِمَّا قَلَّ مِنْهُ اَوْ كَثُرَؕ-نَصِیْبًا مَّفْرُوْضًا(7)

Kanz-ul-Irfan

For men, there is a share ˹of inheritance˺ from those assets that were left by parents and close relatives. For women, there is a share from that which was left by parents and close relatives, whether the inheritance is less or more; a specified share.[1]

Commentary

[1]

Here, the custom from the age of ignorance, not giving shares of inheritance to women and children, was annulled. This means giving sons inheritance and withholding it from daughters is clear oppression and against the Qurʾan as both have a right. Furthermore, this highlights the fact that the rights of women are very important in Islam.
