Does the senior relative inherit alongside the junior relative?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : ...

The Shaykh : No. Aishah inherits from Barirah, and Barirah inherits from her freed slave, but if Barirah died, Aishah would inherit. This means that exclusion applies among them just as it applies among ancestors and descendants. Therefore, the senior relative does not inherit alongside the junior relative.
