إِذَا اجْتَمَعَ أَرْبَعُ جَدَّاتٍ ثِنْتَيْنِ مِنْ قِبَلِ الْأُمِّ وَ ثِنْتَيْنِ مِنْ قِبَلِ الْأَبِ طُرِحَتْ وَاحِدَةٌ مِنْ قِبَلِ الْأُمِّ بِالْقُرْعَةِ فَكَانَ السُّدُسُ بَيْنَ الثَّلَاثَةِ وَ كَذَلِكَ إِذَا اجْتَمَعَ أَرْبَعَةُ أَجْدَادٍ أُسْقِطَ وَاحِدٌ مِنْ قِبَلِ الْأُمِّ بِالْقُرْعَةِ وَ كَانَ السُّدُسُ بَيْنَ الثَّلَاثَةِ .
Translation
A number of our companions, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, form Ali Bin Asbat, from Ismail Bin Mansour, from one of his companions, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘When four grandmothers gather together, two from the direction of the mother, and two from the direction of the father, one is left out from the direction of the mother with the drawing of lots, so the one-sixth would be between the three. And similar to that, when four grandfathers are gathered together, one is dropped from the direction of the mother with the drawing of lots, and that the one-sixth would be between the three’.
