The answer

If the deceased left behind only a wife, five daughters, a full brother, and two full sisters, then the wife receives one-eighth due to the presence of a lineal descendant. The daughters receive two-thirds. The remainder goes to the full brother and the two full sisters by 'asabah (residuarily), with the male receiving the share of two females. The brothers and sisters from the father's side, and the sons of the brother from the father's side, do not inherit due to the presence of the full brother. The inheritance is divided into 480 shares: the wife receives 60 shares, the daughters receive 320 shares (64 for each), the full brother receives 50 shares, and each full sister receives 25 shares.
