The non-inheritance of the children of a maternal uncle

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
I have an uncle who is my father’s brother on his mother’s side. The uncle passed away, leaving behind daughters and no sons. Do the children of his brother on his mother’s side have any inheritance in this lawful wealth?
The children of a maternal uncle do not inherit. However, if he has paternal uncles, even if they are distant, they inherit what remains after the daughters’ shares. If no residuary heirs are found, the remainder is returned to the daughters, and the entire estate goes to the daughters.
