How is an inheritance divided among a mother, a husband, four full brothers, five full sisters, a paternal half-brother, and three paternal half-sisters?
If the deceased left behind only a male, then her mother receives one-sixth (1/6) as a prescribed share due to the presence of a group of siblings. Her husband receives one-half (1/2) as a prescribed share due to the absence of a lineal descendant. The remainder goes to the full brothers and sisters by way of ta’sib (residuary heirship), with the male receiving the share of two females. The sisters and brother from the father's side receive nothing, as they are completely excluded by the full brother. The inheritance is divided into seventy-eight (78) shares: the mother receives thirteen (13) shares, the husband receives thirty-nine (39) shares, each full brother receives four (4) shares, and each full sister receives two (2) shares.
