Imam Malik, may Allah have mercy on him, said that similarly, if two real brothers die, one has children and the other is childless, and they both have a stepbrother, and it is not known which brother died first, then the inheritance of the brother who died childless will go to his stepbrother, not to his nephews.

Imam Malik, may Allah have mercy on him, said that similarly, if a paternal aunt and a nephew die together, or a nephew and an uncle die together, and it is not known who died first, then in the first case, the uncle will not inherit from his nephew, and in the second case, the nephew will not inherit from his paternal aunt.

It reached Imam Malik (may Allah have mercy on him) that Urwah bin Zubair used to say that the child of a woman involved in li'an or the child of adultery, when he dies, his mother will receive her share according to the Book of Allah, and his maternal brothers will also receive their shares. The remainder will go to the mawali of his mother if she was a freed slave, and if she was an Arab woman, then after the shares of the mother and siblings, whatever remains will be the right of the Muslims.

Imam Malik, may Allah have mercy on him, also reported to me from Sulayman bin Yasar in the same way, and this is also the opinion of the scholars of our city.
