The answer

If the heirs are limited to those mentioned, then the mother receives one-sixth due to the presence of a descendant heir, and the husband receives one-fourth due to the presence of a descendant heir. The remainder is for the sons and daughters by ta'sib (residuary heirship), with the male receiving the share of two females. The inheritance is divided into (120) shares: the mother receives (20) shares, the husband receives (30) shares, each son receives (14) shares, and each daughter receives (7) shares. The brothers and sisters receive nothing because they are excluded by the son. We emphasize that matters of inheritance are serious and complex and cannot be settled by a fatwa alone. Rather, they must be referred to Sharia courts for investigation and to ensure there are no wills, debts, or other rights that take precedence over the heirs' rights.
