How is inheritance divided in the case of a woman's death leaving behind a son, a daughter, a mother, a father, a husband, her husband's mother, and her husband's father? And what if a man dies leaving behind a son, a daughter, a father, a mother, a wife, his wife's mother, and his wife's father?
If a woman dies leaving a son, a daughter, a mother, a father, and a husband, then the father's share is one-sixth, the mother's share is one-sixth, and the husband's share is one-fourth. The remainder goes to the son and the daughter, with the male receiving the equivalent of the share of two females. The husband's mother and father do not inherit.
