Primary text

If a Magian has a son and a daughter from his daughter, and then dies, and the younger daughter dies after him, she leaves behind a mother who is a paternal sister and a full brother. The mother inherits one-sixth, and the remainder goes to the brother. The mother receives nothing by her status as a sister because the full brother excludes her.

According to the other opinion, the mother receives the full one-third share.
