If a woman's father passed away, does she inherit from her paternal great-grandfather?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

The granddaughter of the son's son is among those who inherit, and she inherits from her great-grandfather provided there is no son or son's son closer to the deceased, and no two or more daughters, or two granddaughters of a higher degree. She may also inherit if she is aṣabah (a residuary heir) through a son of a son's son who is equal to her in degree or lower.
