(Fatwa: 880/683/H=1434)
In case the detail about the heirs is correct all the property left by your uncle shall be divided into 72 shares after paying due rights preceding inheritance. Out of the total, 9 shares shall go to his wife, 16-16 shares to each daughter, 6-6 shares to each brother while 3 shares shall go to his sister. This ruling shall be applicable only when the father and mother of the deceased uncle had died before him.
The detail of division is as follows:
Wife: 1×09 = 09
Daughters: 3×16 = 48
Brothers: 2×06 = 12
Sister: 1×03 = 03
