Terms used in this bundle. General faraidh terms that are identical to the Ibn Uthaymin bundle glossary are summarized here; terms specific to the grandfather chapter get fuller treatment.

TermMeaning in faraidh
Al-Akdariyyah (الأكدرية)The case of husband + mother + grandfather + 1 sister: the only case where a sister is given a fixed share alongside a grandfather, and the only ‘awl in the grandfather chapter; resolved by pooling the grandfather’s and sister’s share units then dividing 2:1 (chapter 08, 11)
Al-Mu’addah (المعادّة)The full brother includes the paternal half-brother in the head count against the grandfather, then takes his portion back (chapter 08)
‘AshabahResiduary heirs; three types: bin-nafsihi, bil-ghair, ma’al-ghair (chapter 04)
Ashlul-mas’alahBase number: the LCM of the furudh denominators; seven ordinary bases + 18 & 36 specific to the grandfather’s 1/3-of-the-remainder (chapter 06)
‘AwlRaising the base when the furudh exceed it; everyone shrinks proportionally (chapter 07)
Dzawil arhamKin who are neither furudh heirs nor ‘ashabah; they inherit through tanzil when both those groups are absent (chapter 09)
HajbHirman (total exclusion) / nuqshan (reduced share) (chapter 05)
Jadd (جدّ)Grandfather through the father’s line — the center of faraidh’s biggest dispute chapter
KalalahA deceased with no descendant and no father — the condition under which siblings inherit
Muqasamah (مقاسمة)The grandfather is counted as a “brother” (2 heads) and shares the remainder with the siblings; the grandfather always gets whichever option is best for him (chapter 08)
Al-Mushtarakah / al-HimariyyahHusband + mother + 2+ maternal half-siblings + full sibling(s): the furudh exhaust the estate, and the full sibling(s) get nothing under the line of reasoning used (chapter 09)
RaddReturning the remainder to the furudh holders other than the spouse, proportionally (chapter 07)
TanzilThe dzawil arham method: stepping into an intermediary’s position
TashihMultiplying the problem by the smallest multiplier so the share units per head come out whole
TashrikIncluding the full brother(s) to share in the maternal half-siblings’ 1/3 in a Mushtarakah case (Maliki/Shafi’i; not used in the Hanbali line)
TirkahThe entire estate before the five sequential rights are settled (chapter 02)
Al-‘UmariyyatainSpouse + mother + father: the mother gets 1/3 of the remainder (Umar’s ruling)
