The answer

If the deceased left behind only a mother, a wife, a daughter, and a full brother, then the mother receives one-sixth due to the presence of a lineal descendant, the wife receives one-eighth due to the presence of a lineal descendant, the daughter receives one-half, and the remainder goes to the full brother by ta'sib (residuary heirship). The inheritance is thus divided into twenty-four shares: the mother receives four shares, the wife three shares, the daughter twelve shares, and the full brother five shares.
