The answer

If the deceased left behind a husband, a sister's son (nephew), a paternal male cousin's son (son of a full paternal uncle), and children of half paternal uncles (from the father's side), and no other heirs, then the husband receives one half due to the absence of a child. The remaining portion goes to the children of the half paternal uncles (from the father's side) because they are closer in relation than the paternal male cousin's son.

If the sister had passed away before the deceased, then the husband receives one half, and the sister receives the remaining half. The will (bequest) is executed within the limits of one-third of the estate before the distribution of the inheritance.
