If the deceased left behind only a wife, a daughter, and eight paternal nephews, then the wife receives one-eighth (8 shares) due to the presence of a lineal descendant heir. The daughter receives one-half (32 shares). The remaining (24 shares) go to the paternal nephews by ta’sib (agnatic inheritance), with the male receiving the share of two females. The estate is divided into sixty-four shares.
