What is the share of each heir from the estate of the deceased who has: 4 sons of a son, 1 paternal uncle (father's brother from the father's side), 2 daughters, 2 daughters of a son, 1 wife, and 1 paternal sister?
If the heirs are limited to the wife, two daughters, two granddaughters (daughters of the son), and grandsons (sons of the son), then the wife inherits one-eighth due to the presence of a lineal descendant (heir). The two daughters inherit two-thirds. The remainder of the estate is divided among the grandsons and granddaughters by ta'sib (residuary heirship), with the male receiving the share of two females, such that the estate is divided into 48 shares. The paternal uncle and the half-sister (from the father's side) do not inherit, as they are completely excluded by the son of the son. It is important to note that inheritance matters are complex and intricate, and should be referred to the Sharia courts for investigation.
