What about a woman who died, leaving behind a father, a mother, a husband, and a daughter?

If the heirs are limited to those mentioned, the daughter receives half (6 shares), the husband a quarter (3 shares), the mother a sixth (2 shares), and the father a sixth (2 shares). The base number of shares for the inheritance is 12, and it increases to 13 [due to the shares exceeding the base, requiring a proportional reduction for each heir, a process known as 'awl].

Inheritance matters must be brought before the Sharia courts to verify the existence of other heirs, wills, or debts that take precedence over the heirs' rights.
