The answer

If your father's heirs are limited to those mentioned, then your father's estate is divided as follows: your mother (his wife) receives one-eighth as a prescribed share, due to the presence of a descendant heir. Allah Almighty says: "But if you have a child, then for them [the wives] is one-eighth of what you leave." What remains after the wife's prescribed share is for the sons by way of ta'sib (residuary heirship), to be divided equally among them. The origin of the estate is eight, and it is corrected to twenty-four shares. The wife receives three shares, and each son receives seven shares.
