The answer

The estate is divided in the presence of three daughters, a husband, sisters, a brother, and children of a deceased brother as follows: The daughters receive two-thirds, as stated in the verse: (But if there are women [daughters] above two, they get two-thirds of what he left). The husband receives one-fourth, as stated in the verse: (But if they have a child, then for you is one fourth). The remainder goes to the sisters and the brother, with the male receiving the share of two females. The children of the deceased brother receive nothing.
