If the heirs are limited to those mentioned, the inheritance is to be divided into 432 shares: the two wives receive one-eighth (54 shares), divided equally between them; each son receives 28 shares; and each daughter receives 14 shares. As for the remaining heirs, they are excluded by absolute deprivation due to the presence of the deceased's male children. Inheritance matters must be referred to Sharia courts, as there may be wills, debts, or other rights that take precedence over the heirs' rights.
