As per your query,

If a Muslim male dies leaving behind a widow and children, then the widow takes 1/8, and the residue (i.e., 7/8) goes to children. The daughter takes a share in the estate, of the deceased parent when there is no son, when once she takes 1/2: when two or more, all of them together take 2/3.

It should be noted that six sharers inherit as residuary in certain circumstances. These are (a) the father, (b) true grandfather how high so ever, (c) daughter, (d) son’s daughter, (e) full sister, and (f) consanguine sister. Of these, the father and the true grandfather inherit in certain circumstances both as sharers and residuary. No other heir can inherit in a double capacity. The other four inherit either as sharers or as residuary. They succeed as residuary when they co-exist with male heirs of equal proximity.


Hope it helps,

Regards,

Srishti
