How is the inheritance distributed among: (4) sons, a father, (2) full brothers, a husband, and a mother?
If the heirs are limited to those mentioned, then the husband receives one-fourth due to the presence of a lineal descendant, and the father and mother each receive one-sixth due to the presence of a child. The remainder goes to the sons by ta'sib (residuary heirship). The inheritance is divided into 48 shares: the husband receives 12 shares, the father and mother each receive 8 shares, and each of the four sons receives 5 shares. The two full brothers receive nothing because they are completely excluded (حجب حرمان) due to the presence of the sons.
