Calculating the estates of people who passed away and the order in which they passed away cannot be determined

Q: If a family passes away in a car accident and the order in which they passed away cannot be determined, then how will their estates be worked out?

Will مناسخة be followed?

A: If the sequence of their deaths is unknown then each deceased's estate will be calculated separately. It will not be a situation of munaasakhah.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
