Malik said; The generally agreed upon way of doing things among us is that maternal half-siblings do not inherit anything when there are children or grandchildren through sons; male or female. They do not inherit anything when there is a father or the father father. They inherit in what is outside of that. If there is only one male or female; they are given a sixth. If there are two; each of them has a sixth. If there are more than that; they share in a third which is divided among them. The male does not have portion of two females. That is because Allah; the Blessed; the Exalted; says in His Book; If a man or woman has no direct heir; and he has a brother or sister; by the mother; each of them has a sixth. If there are more than two; they share equally in a third. Surat 4 ayat 12.
