The answer

If the deceased left no heirs other than those mentioned, then the mother receives one-sixth as a prescribed share, and the father receives one-sixth as a prescribed share due to the presence of a lineal descendant. The wife receives one-eighth as a prescribed share due to the presence of a lineal descendant, and the two daughters receive two-thirds as a prescribed share. The brothers and sisters inherit nothing, as they are excluded by the father. The issue is awlah (a case where the sum of the shares exceeds the total), and the inheritance is divided into twenty-seven shares: four for the mother, four for the father, three for the wife, and sixteen for the two daughters (eight for each).
