What is the share of each heir from the estate of the deceased (the mother), what is the amount of zakat due on each individual heir, is it permissible to sell the gold and divide its value among the heirs according to Sharia, and what is the ruling if the husband refuses to sell the gold or pay zakat?

The inheritance is divided into 8 shares: the husband receives two shares (one-fourth), and the children receive 6 shares, with the male receiving the equivalent of two females' shares. There is no permissible objection to the distribution of the inheritance. As for the zakat (definition) on jewelry designated for personal adornment, it is a matter of scholarly disagreement, and the majority view is that it is not obligatory. It is not permissible for one heir to pay zakat on behalf of another without their consent. Gold may be sold to divide the rights. It is advisable to consult the Sharia (definition) courts or trusted scholars for the division of inheritances.
