How is the inheritance divided among: one (full brother), one (daughter), one (wife), and four (full sisters)?
If the heirs are limited to those mentioned, then the inheritance is divided as follows: the wife gets one-eighth due to the presence of a lineal descendant, and the daughter gets one-half. The remainder goes to the full brother and full sisters by ta'sib (agnatic inheritance), with the male receiving the share of two females. The inheritance is divided into 16 shares: the wife gets two shares, the daughter gets eight shares, the full brother gets two shares, and each full sister gets one share. The matter of inheritances must be brought before the Sharia courts for investigation and verification to ensure there are no wills, debts, or other rights that take precedence over the rights of the heirs.
