The answer

If the deceased leaves behind only his paternal grandmother (mother of his father), his wife, one son, and two daughters, then his full brother and full sister receive nothing. The grandmother is given one-sixth, and the wife is given one-eighth due to the presence of a lineal descendant. The remainder goes to the son and the two daughters by ta'sib (residuary heirship), with the male receiving the share of two females. The inheritance is divided into 96 shares: the grandmother receives 16 shares, the wife 12 shares, the son 34 shares, and each daughter 17 shares.
