How is the inheritance distributed among the deceased's heirs: 2 sons, 3 daughters, 3 grandsons (son's sons), and 1 nephew (full brother's son), given that the deceased has debts and was financially sponsoring his youngest daughter through the bank?
The deceased's debt must be settled first from their estate before it is distributed among the heirs, and this includes any money that the deceased guaranteed. If the guarantor dies before the debt is due, the creditor may claim their right from the guarantor's estate. However, if the guarantor dies when the debt is due or after, the debt is not taken from the estate unless the debtor is absent or poor.
If the deceased left behind only two sons and three daughters, the estate is divided among them such that the male receives the share of two females. The sons of the son and the full brother's son are excluded by the son. The estate is divided into seven shares: each son receives two shares, and each daughter receives one share.
