24. Most Halachic texts today are based on the above principles – whether a person wants to give to his daughters, someone else who is not an heir, or his wife – with the method of commitment described above.
Leaving a Share to Be Divided According to the Torah
25. Even if a person distributes his property to his sons and daughters equally, to his wife, or to others, it is proper for one asset to be divided 100% according to the Torah to fulfill the Torah’s method of dividing an inheritance. Therefore, if a person writes a general shtar with valid kinyanim that gives out percentages of his estate, he should write, “besides for asset x, which will be divided only according to the Torah,” i.e., only the sons will get a share, not the daughters or wife, and if there is a bechor, he will get a double share (see above, 8).
