Book Summary
The term "kalala" (meaning leaving no parents or children as heirs) occurs twice in the Qur'an, and wide divergences exist regarding its interpretation among scholars. Cilardo Agostino discusses competing views of collateral inheritance, drawing on early poetry, the writings of lexicographers, Qur'anic commentary, and numerous works of jurisprudence.
