The answer

If the heirs are limited to those mentioned, then the mother receives one-sixth as a prescribed share, and the father receives one-sixth as a prescribed share due to the existence of a lineal descendant heir. The daughters receive two-thirds as a prescribed share, and the husband receives one-fourth as a prescribed share due to the existence of a lineal descendant heir. The full siblings receive nothing, as they are excluded by the father. The issue is an 'awl (over-subscribed) one, so the estate is divided into forty-five shares: the mother receives six shares, the father receives six shares, the husband receives nine shares, and each daughter receives eight shares. Estate matters must be referred to the Sharia courts for investigation.
