The answer

The inheritance is distributed among the mentioned heirs as follows: The wife receives one-eighth due to the presence of a lineal descendant, based on Allah’s saying: ﴿But if you have a child, then for them is one-eighth of what you leave.﴾ The remaining portion goes to the children by way of 'asabah (agnatic inheritance), with the male receiving the share of two females, based on Allah’s saying: ﴿Allah instructs you concerning your children: for the male, what is equal to the share of two females.﴾ So, if the inheritance is 7500, the wife receives 937.5, each son receives 937.5, and each daughter receives 468.75. The matter of inheritances must be referred to courts or discussed with knowledgeable scholars, as there might be other heirs, bequests, or debts that take precedence over the heirs' rights.
