If the deceased left only those mentioned, then the mother receives one-sixth due to the presence of a lineal descendant and a group of siblings. The wife receives one-eighth due to the presence of a lineal descendant. The daughters receive two-thirds. The remainder goes to the full brothers and full sisters by ta’sib (agnatic inheritance), with the male receiving the share of two females. The estate is divided into 168 shares: the mother receives 28 shares, the wife 21 shares, the daughters 112 shares (28 for each), and each full brother receives two shares, while each full sister receives one share.
