Primary text

For other fixed share inheritors, such as daughters, children of the son, and sisters (regardless of whether they are consanguineal or uterine), the group receives the same share as two individuals, which is more than the share of a single individual. This is because the male inheritor in their degree, except for full uterine brothers, does not have a fixed share.
