Preface

37
It is difficult, if not practically impossible, to share two compounds per 27
shares of the children and ¼ of 1/8 for each of the four widowers without causing
any harm. It is inconceivable to share the compound at Banjul which measures
338.4 M2 among 27 heads plus ¼ of 1/8 for each widower. In the same Fawakihud
Dawani page it is stated that “what is divisible, land or estate, should be
divided if no harm ensues but what cannot be divided without causing harm,
then it must be sold and the opposing party must be forced to accept it”.
Since the valuation has changed, the value each inheritor will get must also
necessarily change. The new share now based on the new valuation is as follows:
