If the deceased leaves behind only a wife, six sons, and five daughters, then the wife receives one-eighth (1/8) due to the presence of inheriting offspring. The remaining inheritance is for the sons and daughters by ta'sib (agnatic inheritance), with the male receiving the share of two females. The inheritance is divided into 136 shares; the wife receives 17 shares, each son receives 14 shares, and each daughter receives 7 shares.
