If the deceased leaves behind only male descendants, his wife receives one-eighth as a prescribed share due to the presence of a lineal descendant. His two daughters receive two-thirds. The remainder goes to the full brothers and full sister by ta'sib (residuary inheritance), with the male receiving the share of two females. The inheritance is divided into twenty-four shares: the wife receives three shares, the two daughters sixteen shares (eight for each), each full brother receives two shares, and the full sister receives one share.
