Verse (4:12)

The analysis above refers to the twelfth verse of chapter 4 (sūrat l-nisāa):

Sahih International: And for you is half of what your wives leave if they have no child. But if they have a child, for you is one fourth of what they leave, after any bequest they [may have] made or debt. And for the wives is one fourth if you leave no child. But if you leave a child, then for them is an eighth of what you leave, after any bequest you [may have] made or debt. And if a man or woman leaves neither ascendants nor descendants but has a brother or a sister, then for each one of them is a sixth. But if they are more than two, they share a third, after any bequest which was made or debt, as long as there is no detriment [caused]. [This is] an ordinance from Allah , and Allah is Knowing and Forbearing.

It says that yuwsiina is Form I. Is this not Form IV?

Form IV. No doubt whatsoever.

- (4:12:22) I think the verb form IV should be indicated for this.
