If the deceased left behind only a mother, a father, a full sister, and two paternal sisters and a paternal brother; then the mother receives one-sixth due to the presence of siblings, and the remainder goes to the father by ta’sib (agnatic inheritance). The rest of the heirs are excluded from inheritance by the father by hajb hirmān (exclusion from inheritance). The estate is divided into six shares: one share for the mother and five shares for the father.
