How is the inheritance divided among: a father, a mother, a wife, one son, two daughters, three full brothers and one sister, six full nephews (sons of a full brother), and a full paternal uncle?
If the deceased's heirs are limited to the father, mother, son, two daughters, and wife only, then the brothers, their children, the sister, and the paternal uncle do not inherit, as they are excluded by the father and the son. The inheritance is divided as follows: each of the parents receives one-sixth due to the presence of a lineal descendant heir, and the wife receives one-eighth due to the presence of a lineal descendant heir. What remains after the shares of the parents and the wife goes to the children by way of ta'sib (residuary heirship), with the male receiving the share of two females. Inheritance matters should be referred to the Sharia courts for investigation and to ascertain if there are any wills or debts.
