The answer

If the deceased left no heirs other than those mentioned, the wife receives one-eighth due to the existence of a inheriting descendant. The remainder is for the three sons and two daughters by 'asabah (agnatic succession), with the male receiving the share of two females. Thus, the inheritance is divided into sixty-four shares: the wife receives eight shares, each son fourteen shares, and each daughter seven shares.
