What is the share of the mother, the wife, seven sons, and four daughters from the inheritance after the death of their father?
The estate of the deceased, who is survived by a mother, a wife, seven sons, and four daughters, is divided as follows: The mother receives one-sixth (72 shares), the wife receives one-eighth (54 shares), and the remainder is distributed to the sons and daughters by ta'sib (residuary heirship), with the male receiving the equivalent of two females' shares (each son receives 34 shares, and each daughter receives 7 shares). The estate is divided into 432 shares. It must be noted that matters of inheritance are serious, and a mere (religious ruling) is insufficient. Rather, the case must be brought before the courts to investigate the existence of any other heirs, wills, debts, or rights that take precedence over the heirs' rights.
