The answer

The mother receives one-sixth as a fard (obligatory share) due to the presence of a lineal descendant. The wife receives one-eighth as a fard due to the presence of a lineal descendant. The remaining inheritance is for the sons and daughters by ta'sib (residuary inheritance), with the male receiving the share of two females. The matter of inheritances must be referred to the Sharia courts to verify all bequests, debts, and rights before distributing the inheritance.
