Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrated from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), he (peace be upon him) said: "Give the prescribed shares to those who are entitled to them, then whatever remains after the people of fixed shares, it is for the closest male relative (of the deceased)."

Wuhaib narrated with this chain in a similar manner, Ishaq (may Allah have mercy on him) stated: That is, from the man’s side, because ‘Asabah will not be from among them.
