Is the inheritance calculated for a deceased person who left behind: four full paternal cousins, a mother, and three maternal half-sisters?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

If the deceased left behind only a mother, uterine sisters, and full paternal cousins, then the mother receives one-sixth due to the presence of a group of siblings. The uterine sisters receive one-third if they are more than one. The remainder goes to the full paternal cousins by 'asabah (residuary kinship). In this case, the estate is divided into seventy-two shares.
