If the heirs are limited to the sons, the inheritance is divided equally among them, with each receiving six thousand pounds. However, if there are other heirs such as the father, mother, or wife, each is first given their prescribed share: one-sixth for the father or mother, and one-eighth for the wife. The remainder is then divided among the sons, with the male receiving the equivalent of two females' shares if there is a female. If the father is not present, the grandfather takes his place, and similarly, the grandmother takes the place of the mother.
