2891. It was reported from 'Abdullāh bin Muḥammad bin 'Aqīl, from Jābir bin 'Abdullāh, who said: "We went out with the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ until we came to a woman from the Anṣār in Al-Aswāf."[1] The woman came
with her two daughters, and said: 'O Messenger of Allāh! These two are the daughters of Thābit bin Qais who was killed in the battle of Uhud where he was with you, and their paternal uncle has taken all their property and inheritance and did not leave anything behind for them at all. What do you say about it, O Messenger of Allāh! By Allāh! They cannot get married unless they have some property.' The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ replied: 'Allāh will decide about that.'" He said: "Then (the Verse of) Sūrat An-Nisā' was revealed: 'Allāh commands you as regards your children's (inheritance)' until the end of the Verse.[1] The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: 'Call the woman and her husband's brother for me,' then he said to their paternal uncle: 'Give them two-thirds, and give their mother one-eighth, and whatever remains is yours.'" (Ḍā'if)
Abū Dāwūd said: Bishr (one of the narrators) made a mistake, they were the daughters of Sa'd bin Rabī'. Thābit bin Qais was killed in the battle of Al-Yamāmah.

Commentary
To arrive at the correct distribution formula in this case the inheritance is divided into 24 shares: 16 shares (two-thirds) shall go to the daughters, 3 shares (1/8) to the wife, and the remaining 5 shares shall go to the uncle.
