The inheritance is divided among sons and daughters by ta'sib (agnatic succession), with the male receiving the share of two females. The father receives one-sixth due to the presence of a lineal descendant, and the two wives receive one-eighth due to the presence of a lineal descendant. The estate is divided into 480 shares: the father receives 80 shares, the two wives receive 60 shares (30 for each), each son receives 34 shares, and each daughter receives 17 shares.
