The answer

If a woman dies leaving behind three sons and six daughters, and her husband and father died before her, then the entire inheritance goes to her children, with the male receiving the share of two females. If the inheritance is 150,000 Riyals, then the daughter's share is 12,500 Riyals, and the son's share is 25,000 Riyals.

If the deceased left behind the aforementioned children and a husband, and only her parents had died, then the inheritance is divided as follows: the husband receives one-fourth due to the existence of a inheriting offspring, and the remainder goes to the children, with the male receiving the share of two females. Thus, the husband's share is 37,500 Riyals, the daughter's share is 9,375 Riyals, and the son's share is 18,750 Riyals.
