The mother takes one-sixth due to the presence of a direct descendant and a group of siblings. The wife takes one-eighth due to the presence of a direct descendant. The two daughters take two-thirds. The remainder is divided among the full brother and full sister by ta’sib (agnatic inheritance), with the male receiving the share of two females. The full brother's sons receive nothing, as they are completely excluded by the full brother. The estate is divided into 120 shares: the mother receives 20 shares, the wife 15 shares, the two daughters 80 shares (40 for each), and each full brother receives two shares, while the full sister receives one share.
