If the heirs are limited to a daughter, a wife, a mother, and two full brothers, then the daughter receives half (24 shares), the wife receives one-eighth (6 shares), and the mother receives one-sixth (8 shares). The remainder goes to the two full brothers by way of ta’sib (agnatic inheritance), with each full brother receiving 5 shares. The estate is divided into 48 shares. It is recommended to refer inheritance matters to the courts, as there might be other heirs, bequests, or debts.
