2. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Sa‘d ibn abu Khalaf from abu al-‘Abbas who has narrated the following
“Abu "Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, "If a deceased leaves behind two brothers, they are considered more than two brothers of the deceased and they bar the mother from one-third. If there is one brother he does not bar the mother.’ He (the Imam) said, "If there are four sisters they bar the mother from one-third because they are like two brothers but if there are three sisters they do not bar the mother’s share.’”
