The answer

If the deceased has no heirs other than those mentioned, the two wives receive one-eighth (1000 riyals) due to the presence of a lineal descendant heir, and this amount is divided equally between them. The remainder (7000 riyals) is divided among the children, with the male receiving the share of two females. The money is thus divided into 48 shares: the two wives receive 6 shares between them, each daughter receives 7 shares, and each son receives 14 shares. The share of each wife is 500, the share of each daughter is 1166.6, and the share of each son is 2333.3.
