Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
If the deceased leaves behind only a wife, daughters, a full brother, and full sisters, then the wife receives one-eighth due to the presence of a lineal descendant. The daughters receive two-thirds. The remaining portion is for the full brother and full sisters by ta'sib (agnatic inheritance), with the male receiving the share of two females. The inheritance is divided into seventy-two shares: the wife receives nine shares, the daughters receive forty-eight shares (sixteen shares for each one), the full brother receives six shares, and each full sister receives three shares.
