The answer

If the heirs are limited to the wife, two daughters, and full siblings, then: The wife receives one-eighth due to the presence of offspring: "And for them [wives], one eighth of what you leave." The two daughters receive two-thirds: "But if there are [only] daughters, two or more, for them is two thirds of what he left." And the remainder goes to the full siblings: with the male receiving the share of two females.

The inheritance is divided into 24 shares: 3 shares for the wife, 8 shares for each daughter, 2 shares for the full brother, and 1 share for the full sister.

The matter of inheritances must be referred to the courts to verify the existence of wills, debts, or other heirs to ensure the correct distribution of the inheritance.
