Fariq Naik – The Man’s Responsibility to Sustain the Woman Makes Him Entitled to Double her Share

			So generally, in Islam of women
inherits half the share of that of
		

			the male. But there are certain
cases where in a woman inherits
		

			exactly the same share as the
male. If there are children, the
		

			mother and father get one six,
whereas the brothers and sisters
		

			that are left behind, the brothers
and sisters get one six. So
		

			generally, based upon this in
Islam, many times, the female
		

			inherits exactly the same share as
the male. And there are certain
		

			cases when a female inherits
double the share of the male.
		

			For example, if a female dies, and
if she leaves behind a husband, or
		

			father as a mother, and no
children, so the husband will get
		

			half the chair, whereas the mother
she will get 1/3 and the father
		

			will get one six.
		

			So sometimes a female she inherits
double the share of Doctor male.
		

			Now what is the logical reason why
a female inherits have the share
		

			of a male
		

			in Islam, a male has to look after
the financial aspect. And before
		

			marriage, it is the duty of the
Father and the brother to look
		

			after the lodging, boarding
clothing and other financial
		

			aspects of the woman. And after
marriage, it is the duty of the
		

			husband and the son to look after
the lodging, boarding clothing and
		

			other financial aspects of a
woman. So therefore, in Islam, a
		

			man is financially more aware as
compared to a woman. Let's take an
		

			example, suppose a man dies and he
leaves behind 150 100,000 rupees
		

			and this has to be distributed,
the wife takes the share and the
		

			person leaves behind a son and a
daughter. So, the son will get
		

			100,000 rupees and the daughter
will get 50,000 rupees.
		

			Now, the son he will get 100,000
rupees, so, 80 to 90% of this he
		

			will have to spend on the family,
he will have to look after the
		

			financial aspects 80 to 90% of
this he will have to spend it on
		

			the family. Whereas the daughter
when she inherits 50,000 rupees,
		

			she will not have to spend a
single penny. So, which is better,
		

			having 50,000 rupees and not
spending a single penny or having
		

			100,000 rupees and spending 80 to
90% of this on the family, but not
		

			to the second option. So,
therefore, in Islam, a man
		

			inherits double the share of that
of the woman because he has to
		

			look after financial aspects.
Because if a man and a woman they
		

			inherit exactly the same, then it
would be injustice because a man
		

			has to spend so much money on the
family.
		

			Then I would have to give a talk
on men's rights in Islam. The
		

			people who say that this is
injustice, we inherit exactly the
		

			same and we have to spend so much
on the family. That is the reason
		

			in Islam. A female inherits half
of that of the male
