Costs of Maintaining Inherited Property

Question
The costs of maintaining inherited property for two sons, two daughters, and a mother, should the costs be divided according to the legal shares, or equally, meaning all of them pay the same amount, or should they contribute to the costs according to their legal shares?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: They contribute to its maintenance according to each one's ownership in it, which is the ratio of the legal division, and God knows best.
