What is the share of each heir from the inheritance for a deceased person who has the following heirs: (two sons), and (a full brother), and (a mother), and (a daughter), and (a wife)?
If the heirs are limited to those mentioned, and the deceased left no other heir, then the mother receives one-sixth due to the presence of a lineal descendant heir, and the wife receives one-eighth due to the presence of a lineal descendant heir. The remainder goes to the daughter and the two sons by ta'sib (residuary heirship), with the male receiving the share of two females. The full brother receives nothing, as he is completely excluded by the son. The estate is then divided into 120 shares: the mother receives 20 shares, the wife 15 shares, each son 34 shares, and the daughter 17 shares. It must be noted that matters of inheritance are complex and intricate, and one should not rely solely on a . Instead, they must be brought before courts for investigation, as there might be another heir, bequests, debts, or rights that take precedence over the rights of the heirs.
