What is the correct distribution of inheritance for a case where the deceased left behind: a father, 4 full brothers, a maternal brother, a paternal uncle, a mother, a daughter, a wife, a full sister, a paternal sister, and 2 maternal sisters?
If the heirs are limited to those mentioned (daughter, wife, mother, father), the inheritance is to be divided as follows: the daughter receives one-half as a prescribed share (12 shares); the wife receives one-eighth as a prescribed share (3 shares); the mother receives one-sixth as a prescribed share (4 shares); and the father receives one-sixth as a prescribed share (4 shares), in addition to one remaining share by virtue of residuary kinship, making the father's total five shares. The inheritance is divided into twenty-four shares, and the remaining heirs receive nothing due to the presence of the father.
