The answer

The remainder of the deceased's estate, after settling his debts and bequests, is divided as follows: the mother gets one-sixth (20 shares), the wife gets one-eighth (15 shares), and the remaining portion goes to the children by way of ta'sib (agnatic inheritance), with the male receiving the equivalent of two females' shares (34 shares for the son and 17 shares for the daughter). The grandmother and full siblings do not inherit. If the mother dies after the son, her share of his inheritance is divided among her living heirs.
