When Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) was in Basra, he wrote to Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) that I have been asked about the issue of a grandfather and six brothers. Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) wrote in reply that give the grandfather one-sixth (sudus), and after that do not give anything to anyone. (That is, one-sixth is for the grandfather, and the remaining five-sixths are for the brothers.)

Ibrahim said: Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) used to include brothers with the grandfather, making them six, and would give each one a share. He would not give anything from the inheritance to maternal brothers and sisters along with the grandfather, and he would not give the grandfather more than one-sixth in the presence of children, except if there was someone other than the child. If there was a full brother along with a maternal brother, he would not give anything to the maternal brother. And if there was a full sister and a paternal brother, he would give half to the sister, and the remaining half would be divided equally between the paternal brother and the grandfather. And if among the heirs there were brothers and sisters, he would include the grandfather with them with one-sixth (of the share).
