The answer

If the deceased leaves behind only two sons and a daughter, then the inheritance is for them by way of ta'sib (residuary heirship), with the male receiving the share of two females, in accordance with the Almighty's saying: "Allah instructs you concerning your children: for the male, what is equal to the share of two females." There is nothing for the remaining heirs mentioned, as they are excluded by the son, an exclusion of deprivation (ḥajb ḥirmān). The inheritance is divided into five shares: two shares for each son and one share for the daughter.
