Huzail bin Shurahbeel narrates that it was asked from Sayyiduna Abu Musa Ash'ari (may Allah be pleased with him) about a person who leaves behind a daughter, a granddaughter, and a full sister among his heirs. So Abu Musa said: "The daughter will receive half, and whatever remains will go to the sister." Then Abu Musa Ash'ari said: "Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) will also answer in accordance with what I have said." People then asked Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) about this, and also informed him of Abu Musa Ash'ari's answer. So Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "How can I say this, when I have heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: (In such a situation) the daughter will get half, the granddaughter will get one-sixth, thus completing two-thirds, and whatever remains will go to the full sister."

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abu Numair (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) was asked about the inheritance of the paternal and maternal aunts. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) remained silent; at that time, he was riding his mount and slowed its pace. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Jibreel (Gabriel), peace be upon him, has informed me that neither of them will receive a share in inheritance." This narration is also transmitted through some other chains.
