What is the share of each heir from the aforementioned inheritance?
The distribution of the inheritance is as follows: The mother receives one-sixth due to the presence of a lineal descendant heir. The wife receives one-eighth due to the presence of a lineal descendant heir. The two daughters receive two-thirds, as established by the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him. The remainder goes to the full brother and full sister by ta’sib (residuary inheritance), with the male receiving the share of two females. The paternal brothers and sisters receive nothing because they are excluded by the full brother, an exclusion of deprivation.
The estate is divided into 72 shares: The mother receives 12 shares, the wife receives 9 shares, the two daughters receive 48 shares (24 for each), the full brother receives 2 shares, and the full sister receives 1 share.
