If a wife dies leaving behind a husband, a mother, a father, two sons, and a daughter, then the husband receives one-fourth, the mother one-sixth, the father one-sixth, and the remainder goes to the children: for the male, the equivalent of the share of two females. The inheritance is divided by multiplying the total inheritance amount (4110) by each heir's share, divided by the basis of the issue (12). Thus, the husband's share is 1027.5 dinars, the mother's 685 dinars, the father's 685 dinars, the two sons' 1370 dinars (685 dinars for each), and the daughter's 342.5 dinars.
