a portion

of what

(is) left

(by) the parents

and the near relatives

and for the women

a portion

of what

And when

present

(at) the (time of) division

(of)

the relatives

and the orphans

and the poor

then provide them

from it

and speak

to them

words

(of) kindness

And let fear

those who

if

they left

(and) they would have feared

about them

So let them fear

Allah

wrongfully

only

they consume

in

their bellies

fire

and they will be burned

(only) one

then for her

(is) half

for each

one

of them

a sixth

of what

(is) left

if

for him

a child

But if

not

is

for him

his parents

then for his mother

(is) one third

And if

are

for him

brothers and sisters

then for his mother

(is) the sixth

from

after

any will

he has made

[of which]

or

Your parents

and your children
