Zād al-MustaqniʿAl-Hajjawi

One-sixth is allotted to one or more granddaughters through a son when a (full) daughter is present, and to one or more paternal sisters when a full sister is present, provided that in neither case is there a male who would make them residuaries.

If the two-thirds quota has already been completed by daughters—whether by them alone or together with granddaughters—any female descendants beneath them are excluded, unless a male of their own generation or a lower generation turns them into residuaries. The same applies to paternal sisters in the presence of full sisters, so long as no full brother agnates them.

One or more sisters inherit whatever remains after the daughter has received her fixed share. A single uterine brother or sister receives one-sixth, while two or more share one-third equally.

Section on exclusion (ḥajb)

Grandfathers are excluded by the father, and a more remote ancestor by a nearer one; grandmothers are excluded by the mother; grandsons through a son are excluded by the son; full siblings are excluded by a son, a son’s son, or the father; paternal siblings are excluded by all of those and by a full brother; uterine siblings are excluded by a child, a grandson through a son, the father, or the grandfather, and the father likewise bars every nephew and paternal uncle.

(1) In manuscript “B”, an entire line is missing up to the words “their brother”. (2) The phrase “and a father” is absent from manuscript “B”. (3) Manuscript “B” reads “the father”, which is incorrect.
والسدس لبنت ابن فأكثر مع بنت اولأخت فأكثر لأب مع أخت لأبوين مع عدم معصب فيهما. فإن استكمل الثلثين بنات "أو هما" سقط من دونهن وإن لم يعصبهن١ ذكر بإزائهن أو أنزل منهن وكذا الأخوات من الأب مع أخوات لأبوين إن لم يعصبهن أخوهن. والأخت فأكثر ترث ما فضل عن فرض البنت فأزيد وللذكر أو الأنثى من ولد الأم السدس ولاثنين فأزيد الثلث بينهم بالسوية. فصل في الحجب فتسقط الأجداد بالأب والأبعد بالأقرب والجدات بالأم وولد الابن بالابن وولد الأبوين بابن وابن ابن وأب٢ وولد الأب بهم وبالأخ لأبوين وولد الأم٣ بالولد وبولد الابن وبالأب وأبيه "ويسقط به كل ابن أخ وعم".
١سقط في "ب" بمقدار سطر إلى قوله: أخوهن. ٢سقط من "ب": وأب. ٣في "ب": الأب، وهو خطأ.
