What is the share of each heir from the inheritance?
If the heirs are limited to those mentioned, the wife receives one-eighth due to the existence of a lineal descendant, and the mother receives one-sixth due to the deceased having children. The remainder goes to the children, with the male receiving the equivalent of the share of two females. The full siblings inherit nothing, as they are excluded by the male child. The estate is divided into 192 shares: the wife receives 24 shares, the mother receives 32 shares, each son receives 34 shares, and each daughter receives 17 shares. Inheritance cases must be brought before the Sharia courts for an accurate investigation to ascertain the existence of wills, debts, or other heirs.
