According to Shariah Law, after the fulfillment of her debts and will (if any), the husband will receive 1/4th, and the balance amount will be divided into 6 parts, whereby the sons would receive twice the amount of the daughters.

If there are no sons then the balance will be divided equally among Daughters.

If the Mother and or  Father of the deceased woman is alive they will get share as under;

Mother; 1/6th

Father; 1/6th

Husband;1/4th

Balance between daughters
