How is the inheritance divided among: a wife, two daughters, a full brother, two full sisters, and two maternal half-sisters?
The inheritance – if there are no heirs other than those mentioned – is divided as follows: two-thirds for the two daughters, one-eighth for the wife, and the remainder for the full brothers and sisters by way of ta'sib (residuary heirship), with the male receiving the share of two females. The sister from the mother's side (half-sister through the mother) receives nothing due to the presence of a descendant heir. Those who passed away before the deceased receive nothing. The inheritance is divided into 96 shares: 64 shares for the two daughters, 12 shares for the wife, 10 shares for the full brother, and 5 shares for each full sister.
