What is the share of each heir from the inheritance for a deceased person who has: a husband, a father, a mother, 3 sons, one daughter, 4 brothers, and 3 sisters?
If the deceased left no heirs other than her mother, father, husband, three sons, one daughter, full brothers, and full sisters, then her mother receives one-sixth and her father receives one-sixth due to the presence of a direct descendant. Allah Almighty says: {And for his parents, each of them one sixth of what he left if he had a child.} Her husband receives one-fourth due to the presence of a direct descendant. Allah Almighty says: {But if they have a child, then for you is one fourth of what they leave, after any bequest they [may have] made or debt.} The remainder goes to the three sons and the daughter by way of ta'sib (residuary inheritance), with the male receiving the share of two females, based on the Almighty's statement: {Allah instructs you concerning your children: for the male, what is equal to the share of two females.} The full brothers and full sisters receive nothing because they do not inherit when a son or a father is present. The estate is to be divided into eighty-four shares: the mother and father each receive fourteen shares, the husband receives twenty-one shares, each son receives ten shares, and the daughter receives five shares.
