The answer

The deceased's wife receives one-eighth due to the existence of a lineal descendant, and his daughters receive two-thirds. The remainder goes to the full brother by ta'sib (residuary heirship), and the paternal siblings (brothers and sisters from the father's side) receive nothing. The inheritance is divided into 168 shares: 21 shares for the wife, 112 shares for the daughters (16 shares for each), and 35 shares for the full brother. Inheritance cases must be submitted to the Sharia courts for investigation.
