Does the father's maternal aunt or paternal aunt have a right to maintaining family ties?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question : Does the father's maternal uncle or paternal uncle have a right to maintaining family ties, like the maternal aunt or paternal aunt?

Answer : The answer is yes, but they are of lower rank than the maternal aunt and paternal aunt, because the maternal aunt and paternal aunt are closer. And I will give you a useful rule: a person's maternal uncle is the maternal uncle of him and his descendants, and a person's paternal uncle is the paternal uncle of him and his descendants. This will be useful to you in the chapter of prohibited marriages.
