If the heirs are limited to those mentioned, the husband receives one-fourth due to the presence of a lineal descendant heir. The four daughters receive two-thirds. The remaining portion goes to the full sister and the two full brothers by 'asabah (agnatic succession), with the male receiving the share of two females. The matter must be brought before the Sharia courts to verify the absence of other heirs, wills, or debts that take precedence over the rights of the heirs.
