1 min readAlso available in العربية

If a man dies and leaves behind his wife, three daughters, three full brothers, and one full sister, and no other heirs, then his wife receives one-eighth due to the presence of a lineal descendant. The daughters receive two-thirds. The remaining portion is for the full brothers and the full sister by 'asabah (residuary heirship), with the male receiving the share of two females. The inheritance is divided into 504 shares: the wife receives 63 shares, the daughters receive 336 shares (112 shares for each daughter), each full brother receives 30 shares, and the full sister receives 15 shares.
