What is the share of each heir from the mentioned inheritance?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

If the heirs of the deceased are limited to those mentioned, then the estate is to be divided as follows: The wife gets one-eighth due to the presence of a lineal descendant. The daughters get two-thirds due to their multiplicity and the absence of a male co-sharer. What remains after the share of the wife and daughters goes to the full brother and full sister by ta’sib (residuary heirship), with the male receiving the share of two females. The origin of the estate is twenty-four, and it is corrected to seventy-two, divided as follows: The wife receives nine shares, each daughter sixteen shares, the full brother ten shares, and the full sister five shares.
