If the deceased left no heirs other than those mentioned, the mother receives one-sixth due to the presence of a brother and two sisters, as Allah Almighty says: "If he has brothers [or sisters], the mother will have a sixth." The remainder is to be divided between the brother and the two sisters, with the male receiving the share of two females. The inheritance is divided into 24 shares: the mother receives 4 shares, the full brother receives 10 shares, and each full sister receives 5 shares. It is advisable to consult the courts regarding the division of inheritances.
