Q. We have a piece of (land) and we are one brother, mother, and four sisters
so how do you divide the land between each person equally?
not money-wise just masaha.

A. Wife gets 1/8. Brother gets twice the amount of the sisters.

The shares with be divided into 48 equal shares.

Wife gets 6 shares

Brother 14 shares

Sisters 7 shares each

If above remains difficult for inheritors to understand, go to your local muslim accountant and ask them to distribute as indicated, then have it verified by your local mufti, or qualified Islamic scholar.

Allah Certainly Knows Best

p.s. excuse the delay in response
