Answer:
What is kalkala
inheritance?
In the name of Allah, We praise Him, seek His
help and ask for His forgiveness. Whoever Allah guides none can misguide,
and whoever He allows to fall astray, none can guide them aright. We bear
witness that there is none worthy of worship but Allah Alone, and we bear witness
that Muhammad (saws) is His slave-servant and the seal of His Messengers.
Allah Says in the Holy Quran Chapter 4 Surah
Nisaa verse 12 (part):
…..If the man or
woman who are ‘kalala’ (one
who has left neither ascendants nor descendants) but has left a brother or a
sister each one of the two gets a sixth; but if more than two they share in a
third; after payment of legacies and debts; so that no loss is caused (to
anyone). Thus is it ordained by Allah
and Allah is All-Knowing Most Forbearing.
Allah Says in the Holy Quran Chapter 4 Surah
Nisaa verse 176:
176 They ask thee for a legal decision. Say: ‘Allah directs (thus) about ‘kalala’ (those who leave no
descendants or ascendants as heirs).’ If
it is a man that dies leaving a sister but no child she shall have half the
inheritance: if (such a deceased was) a woman who left no child her brother
takes her inheritance: if there are two sisters they shall have two-thirds of
the inheritance (between them): if there are brothers and sisters (they share),
the male having twice the share of the female.
Thus doth Allah make clear to you (His Law) lest ye err. And Allah hath
knowledge of all things.
In the terminology of Islamic Fiqh or Jurisprudence, a
‘Kalala’ is the inheritance of a deceased believing man or woman who is
survived neither by their parents, nor do they leave behind any
off-spring. The wealth left behind by
such deceased are distributed as inheritance amongst their surviving brothers
and/or sisters.
