The answer

If the deceased leaves no heirs other than two wives, sons, and daughters, then the two wives receive one-eighth of the inheritance equally due to the presence of lineal descendants, as Allah Almighty says: "But if you have a child, then for them is one eighth of what you leave." The remainder goes to the sons and daughters by ta'sib (residuary heirship), with the male receiving the share of two females, as Allah Almighty says: "Allah instructs you concerning your children: for the male, what is equal to the share of two females."

There is nothing for the rest of the mentioned heirs, as they are excluded by complete exclusion due to the direct son of the deceased.

The inheritance is divided into 400 shares: - For the two wives: 50 shares (25 shares for each). - For each son: 28 shares. - For each daughter: 14 shares.

Inheritance matters must be brought before the courts to verify the existence of other heirs, wills, debts, or rights that take precedence over the rights of the heirs.
