The deceased's wife receives one-eighth as a prescribed share due to the existence of a direct heir. His daughter receives one-half as a prescribed share. The remainder goes to his full brother by virtue of ta'sib (agnatic succession). Thus, the inheritance is divided into eight shares: one share for the wife, four shares for the daughter, and three shares for the full brother. Matters of inheritance must be referred to the courts, as there may be wills, debts, or other rights that take precedence over the rights of the heirs.
