Women and inheritance
In Islam, women are entitled the right of inheritance, but often a woman's share of inheritance is less than that of a man's.
   In general circumstances, Islam allots females half the inheritance share available to males who have the same degree of relation to the deceased in some (though not all) circumstances. For example, where the deceased has both male and female children, a son's share is double that of a daughter's. Additionally, the sister of a childless man inherits half of his property upon his death, while a brother of a childless woman inherits all of her property.
   Islamic scholars hold that the original reason for this difference is the responsibilities alloted to spouses. A husband in Islam must use his inheritance to support his family while a wife has no support obligations. Also, men had to pay the dowry to women in marriage while women didn't have to pay anything to men.
   The Qur'an doesn't discriminate between men and women in cases of kalalah relation. Kalalah describes a person who leaves behind neither parents nor children; it also means all the relatives of a deceased except his parents and children, and it also denotes the relationships which are not through [thedeceased’s] parents or children.
Other Scholars Views on Islamic Inheritance
Professor Almaric Rumsey (1825-1899) from King's College, University of London, wrote in one of his many legal books, "[theMuslim law of inheritance] comprises beyond question the most refined and elaborate system of rules for the devolution of property that's known to the civilised world."
