Abstract

In the matter of inheritance division among nephews and nieces, most فقها (jurists) uphold the rule of "Tafadol" and consider the inheritance share of males to be twice that of females. However, according to Ayatollah Khouei's view, in the absence of a specific proof, one should refer to the principle of equality, and the arguments for the rule of "Tafadol" are not capable of being extended beyond their specific cases. The main question is what are the jurisprudential foundations of Ayatollah Khouei's view in this regard? Considering that no specific basis has been found for his view, an attempt has been made to argue based on Ayatollah Khouei's jurisprudential principles, such as the invalidity of consensus) based on a single hadith, the invalidity) and non-determinative nature) of practical fame, the invalidity of the narrations of the book "Fiqh al-Ridha" and "Da'a'im al-Islam", and the non-universality) of the rule of "Tafadol". In addition to rejecting the major premise of the validity) of consensus based on a single hadith, he also raises a minor premise objection and rejects the very existence of consensus in this matter.
