How is the inheritance distributed among: (two sons), (grandson), (mother), (daughter), and (wife)?
The son of the son inherits nothing due to being blocked by the son of the deceased. If the mentioned heirs are only these, then the mother receives one-sixth due to the presence of a lineal descendant, and the wife receives one-eighth due to the presence of a lineal descendant. The remainder goes to the daughter and the two sons by 'asabah (residuary heirship), with the male receiving the share of two females. The inheritance is divided into 120 shares: the mother receives 20 shares, the wife receives 15 shares, each son receives 34 shares, and the daughter receives 17 shares. It must be noted that matters of inheritance are serious and must be referred to courts for investigation and to ensure that there are no wills, debts, or other rights taking precedence over the heirs' right.
