Unclear Question about Inheritance

Question

Aziz Fatima died. She was a widow with 4 real daughters 2 step sons & 3 step daughters. She had one real sister. How should her inheritance be distributed.

Answer

All perfect praise be to Allah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allah, and that Muhammad  sallallaahu  `alayhi  wa  sallam ( may  Allaah exalt his mention ) is His slave and Messenger.

The question is not clear. The male heirs are fifteen and the female heirs are ten. The division of inheritance cannot be explained unless the heirs are clearly specified without any ambiguity.

Hence, if you are keen on knowing the answer, please re-enter your question by determining the heirs by entering the data.

Allah knows best.
