The answer

The division of the inheritance for a man who passed away, leaving behind a wife, two daughters, and a paternal sister, would be as follows:

The wife: She receives one-eighth due to the presence of a lineal descendant (the two daughters), as Allah Almighty says: "But if you have a child, then for them [the wives] is one eighth of what you leave." The two daughters: They receive two-thirds, as Allah Almighty says: "Allah instructs you concerning your children: for the male, what is equal to the share of two females. But if there are [only] daughters, two or more, for them is two thirds of what he left." The paternal sister: She receives the remainder by ta'sib (residuary heirship), because sisters become residuary heirs with daughters. The two maternal sisters: They do not inherit due to the presence of the two daughters. The full nephew and the full paternal uncle: They do not inherit because they are excluded by the paternal sister.

When dividing the inheritance into 24 parts: the wife receives 3 parts, the two daughters receive 16 parts (8 parts each), and the paternal sister receives 5 parts.
