How is the inheritance divided among: a father, a husband, a mother, and two daughters?
If the heirs are limited to the father, mother, two daughters, and the husband, then the father and mother each receive one-sixth, the two daughters receive two-thirds, and the husband receives one-fourth, based on the verses of inheritance in Surah An-Nisa. The inheritance is then divided into thirty shares: the father and mother each receive four shares, the husband receives six shares, and each daughter receives eight shares. It is advised not to divide the inheritance without consulting the Sharia courts, due to potential complications such as an unknown heir, bequests, or debts that take precedence over the heirs' rights.
