What is the share of each heir from the inheritance in the case of: 10 daughters, 1 wife, 4 full sisters, 2 full brothers, 2 paternal half-brothers, and 1 maternal half-brother?
The wife receives one-eighth (1/8) due to the existence of a lineal descendant (heir). The ten daughters receive two-thirds (2/3). The remainder goes to the full brothers and full sisters by ta'sib (residuary heirs), with the male receiving the share of two females. The paternal half-brothers and maternal half-brothers and sisters receive nothing because they are excluded. The estate is divided into 960 shares: 120 shares for the wife, 640 shares for the daughters (64 shares for each daughter), 100 shares for the two full brothers (50 shares for each brother), and 50 shares for the two full sisters (25 shares for each sister).
