How is the inheritance distributed among the deceased's heirs, who are: a husband, two daughters, five full brothers, one half-brother (from father's side), one half-brother (from mother's side), eight sons of a full brother, five sons of a half-brother (from father's side), and one full paternal cousin?
If the heirs are limited to those mentioned, the husband receives one-fourth due to the presence of the two daughters. The two daughters receive two-thirds as a prescribed share, and the remainder goes to the full brothers by virtue of agnatic kinship. The inheritance is divided into sixty shares: the two daughters receive forty shares (twenty for each), the husband receives fifteen shares, and each full brother receives one share. The rest of the relatives do not inherit due to the presence of those who exclude them. It is advisable to refer inheritance matters to the Sharia courts for investigation and to ensure there are no wills or debts that take precedence over the rights of the heirs.
