Are Islamic inheritance laws unfair to women?

This video explores whether inheritance laws in Islam give women half the total inheritance given to men as is commonly assumed. Specific cases are provided as examples to show the variations in inheritance that result from the ratio of surviving heirs. An introduction to the use of jurisprudential tools available to Islamic legal scholars also explains how justice may be obtained in cases where certain heirs require more inheritance than they would automatically receive as their fixed portion.
