If the heirs are limited to sons and daughters only, then the inheritance is divided into sixteen shares: two shares for each son and one share for each daughter. We caution that matters of inheritance are serious and complex, and it is not sufficient to rely solely on a fatwa. Rather, they must be referred to the Sharia courts for investigation, as there might be another heir, or wills, or debts that take precedence over the rights of the heirs.
