The remainder goes solely to the son of the brother.

It is also plausible that the father of the mother receives one-sixth of the remainder, and five-sixths goes to the son of the brother. Abu Hanifa rules that the estate is divided between the mother's mother and the daughter in a four-part division, by fixed share and returned portion.
