Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
If the deceased leaves behind only a wife, daughters, and full siblings, then the wife receives one-eighth due to the presence of a lineal descendant. The daughters receive two-thirds, and the remainder goes to the full brothers and sisters by way of ta'sib (residuary inheritance), with the male receiving the share of two females. The estate is divided into 144 shares.
