How is the inheritance divided among the heirs: the husband, the mother, the full sister, the paternal half-sister, three maternal half-brothers, and the paternal full paternal uncle?
If the deceased left no heirs other than those mentioned, then her mother gets one-sixth due to the presence of siblings, her husband gets one-half due to the absence of a descendant heir, her full sister gets one-half, her paternal half-sister gets one-sixth to complete the two-thirds, and the maternal siblings get one-third, divided equally among them. The full paternal uncle is an 'asabah (residuaries) and inherits nothing here. The issue is an 'awl (increase in shares), so the inheritance is divided into thirty shares: the mother gets three, the husband nine, the full sister nine, the paternal half-sister three, and each of the maternal siblings gets two shares. Inheritances are serious matters and must be submitted to courts for investigation, in case there are wills, debts, or other heirs.
