    I don?t understand why is translated everywhere as 2/3.

    It is a dual noun with Noon dropped for reason of being first-annexed noun of Possessive Phrase, Ma-Relative Pronoun is the Annexer.

      Salaam brother,

      I am not sure if I understood correctly.

      What is the difference then with 4176 "... ..." looks to me almost the same.
      and why is in 7320 no Noen?
      7320 "... "

      Do you know any similar ayaat where this Noen is missing?

      Salaam and thanks,
      Bender

        This is Possessive Phrase, therefore following the rule the Noon- of dual noun is dropped as is dropped the Noon of plural in such construction. This is same word -two third. It is Nominative indicated by alif. When it is genitive you see it since it is preceded by Preposition. is the sign of genitive. Here too Noon of dual is dropped because of Possessive construct.

        is singular in Possessive Phrase.

        I hope it clarifies.

          Nothing gets excluded from inheritance. The word used is "Women". It has no singular, just plural with diminuiive "few women". It is nowhere used for female of any age since age starts from birth to death. It solely denotes women. A person leaving behind property could be one when his daughters are already women. Moreover, as you pointed out, they are handed over inheritance only when they become women-a female having become mature to enter marriage bond. The opposite gender of her is Man not boy or child.

          Peace Mazhar -- I?ll leave rijal and nisa un-translated and extrapolate their meaning from verses and keeping a child?s or orphans inheritance safe until they mature does not say inheritance is only for adults and warns those in their care not eat their wealth ? i.e. the shares were already assigned although not yet distributed.

          Example mother and sister (age 2)

          4176 al-kallati if person died is not to person waladun/child born and has sister so for her half (no mention of nisa)

          1 ? 1/2 sister (fixed) = 1/2 mother (variable) no son/brother

          The above is an orphan case (fatherless child) comes with dire warning the shares belong to her.

          46 and test the orphans until when reached the marriage so if you perceive from them rational so deliver to them their wealth

          410 indeed the ones who eat wealth the orphans injustice surely eat in their bellies a fire and they will be burned a blaze

          This is Possessive Phrase, therefore following the rule the Noon- of dual noun is dropped as is dropped the Noon of plural in such construction. This is same word -two third. It is Nominative indicated by alif. When it is genitive you see it since it is preceded by Preposition. is the sign of genitive. Here too Noon of dual is dropped because of Possessive construct.

          is singular in Possessive Phrase.

          I hope it clarifies.

          Peace Bender and thank you for the question and Mazhar for the clarification which to put in simple speech/practice ...

          411 so if are nis above two so for them 2/3

          4176 so if knat/they were (feminine dual) two so to them the third each (1/3 + 1/3)

          7320 third twice (1/3 x 2) the night and half of it (1/2 x 1) and third of it (1/3 x 1)

            nope

            If I would give this sentence (wich is not Quran) to an arab scholar would he then know that I am talking here about 2/6 instead of 1/6?
            "... ..."

            Also do you have another ayaat for reference?

              Salaam Noon,

              Next thing what I found hmm
              why only this part (thulathaa) is without AL in 411, thus undefined?
              all the other parts have AL.

                It is okay to say it to me. Don't say it to a mathematician like Noon. Give it a second thought what you have said and laugh it out. Thanks.

                  I know exactly what I said. And I believe you also know what my point is. We are not talking about the math.
                  So can you please tell me what you read there?

                    Salaam Bender,

                    the eight
                    the sixth
                    the fourth
                    the third
                    the half

                    No such word as the two third more like third parts; see history of fractions...

                    http//www.cimt.plymouth.ac.uk/journal/lffract.pdf

                    It could be that since they are incapable of managing they do not inherit. What I was after was an example, that would disprove the theory. One or two will suffice.

                    Peace Wakas,

                    923 and Who created the male wal-unth and the female

                    Example husband, two sons ages 10, 21 and three daughters ages 2, 14, 19
                    411 to the male like share the two (feminine)
                    412 so if kna is for them walad/son so for you the fourth

                    Obviously husband gets 1/4 and children remainder regardless of age 2, 10, 14 etc.
                    1 - 1/4 husband (fixed) = 3/4 children (variable) 21 ratio male to female

                    What if husband and three daughters ages 2, 14, 19 ? why cannot all inherit as before?
                    411 so if are nisan above two so for them two thirds
                    1 ? 2/3 (three daughters, 2/9 each) = 1/3 husband (variable) no son and there is child/born

                    What if husband and later the oldest son died brother age 10 and three sisters ages 2, 14, 19
                    4176 ... and if they were ikh'watun rijalan wanis so to the male like share the two (feminine)

                    21 ratio male to female same as when they were under the children category.

                        Yes we know there is half or the half or third or the third or kalala or the kalala, etc.
                        What I'm relaying to you is that there is no such word as two third or the two third.

                        Have you read the article? http//www.cimt.plymouth.ac.uk/journal/lffract.pdf

                        See prior examples; it's third two or the third each or third parts which add to 2/3 we translate as such.

                        411 so if are nis above two so for them 2/3

                        4176 so if knat/they were (feminine dual) two so to them the third each (1/3 + 1/3)

                        7320 third twice (1/3 x 2) the night and half of it (1/2 x 1) and third of it (1/3 x 1)

                          How naive. You did not give a second thought to realize your simplicity in having asked such question. You say 1/6 + 1/6= 2/6. Thereby you coined a dual word for it.

                          Qur'aan also deals with people when they are so simple. Note carefully how Qur'aan is teaching you simple mathematics alongwith Arabic

                          Again see your proposition
                          1/6 + 1/6= 2/6-------it is
                          1/3 one third.

                            At the risk of being called naive and simple

                            Is this what the Arabic in the Koran says

                            = 1/6 + 1/6 = 2/6 = 1/3?

                            Google translate says Every one of them gets one-sixth

                                What you don't understand or refuse to understand is that I am not intrested in the math.
                                I took 6 because that was the first number I saw in 411

                                Let's try it again now with a prime, inshaAllah you will now focus on my question instead of the math.
                                "... ..."
                                If an arab reads this, what does he read here
                                1/5 or 2/5 or n/5 where 2<n<5 or does he read parts of 1/5 where parts is any number >1 thus it could also be 17 x 1/5

                                InshaAllah you will now focus on what I am asking instead of being the smart guy.
                                And I will appreciate it if you can give me a verse from The Quran where this concept is supported.

                                Salaam,
                                Bender

                                  At the risk of being called naive and simple

                                  Is this what the Arabic in the Koran says

                                  = 1/6 + 1/6 = 2/6 = 1/3?

                                  Google translate says Every one of them gets one-sixth
                                  -[ giveup

                                  Yes 1/6 and 1/6 of a quanity becomes collectively 1/3. In case the brother and sister each of whom gets one sixth are more than two the share will remain the same measuring 1/3 for all of them.

                                    Am I that unclear? I am NOT talking about the veracity of mathematics. Every schoolboy knows that.

                                    I asked

                                    "Is this what the Arabic in the Koran says"?

                                    I asked this because you claimed that "Qur'aan is teaching you simple mathematics" and then said "1/6 + 1/6= 2/6-------it is 1/3 one third" along with Arabic script.

                                    Does the Koran really say 1/6 + 1/6 = 2/6 = 1/3?
                                    I can't find this in the Koran. When entering the sentence you quoted it does not mention that, so I was asking for clarification.

                                    I do not understand how what you are saying and what I find in the Koran fit together.

                                      Mathematics is represented by digits. And mathematics is verbally partrayed by words. When we do not write 2/6 in mathematics since it is divisible yielding 1/3 which is verbally described by a single word. This was also quoted in the part of Ayah

                                      I just repeated the quote of another member who said 1/6 + 1/6 = 2/6

                                        It might help if gone through entirely

                                          No, this does not help at all.

                                          How can explaining numbers and mathematics help when I am asking a question relating to words used in the Koran?

                                          Do you also want to explain how a car wash works in time cycles or the sink rate of a 747 in m/sec? None of these have anything to do with my question. Is it possible to answer a straight question with a straight answer?

                                          If I ask a question about a sentence and the representation, I am not asking about the origins of the representation.

                                          You claimed that "1/6 + 1/6= 2/6-------it is 1/3 one third" along with Arabic script.
                                          I don't care whether this was in reply to anyone.

                                          The following expects and answer in the form yes/no
                                          Does the Koran really say 1/6 + 1/6 = 2/6 = 1/3?

                                          If you answer yes, I will ask where, please show me.
                                          and if you answer no, then I will ask why do you bring it up then?

                                          So, do you care to qualify and rephrase what you actually want to say?
