The answer

If the heirs are limited to those mentioned, the inheritance is to be divided among them, with the male receiving the share of two females, in accordance with the Almighty’s saying: "Allah instructs you concerning your children: for the male, what is equal to the share of two females." Thus, the inheritance is divided into nine shares: each son receives two shares, and each daughter receives one share. We warn of the seriousness of matters concerning inheritances, as it is not sufficient to rely on a fatwa; rather, it must be referred to the Sharia courts for investigation regarding the existence of wills, debts, or rights that take precedence over the rights of the heirs.
