The answer

If the deceased has no heirs other than the sons of his full brother and the sons of his half-brother (from the father's side), then his estate goes only to the sons of his full brother. The money is divided equally among them because full siblings have a stronger claim in inheritance than half-siblings. This is indicated by the saying of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him: "Give the prescribed shares to those entitled to them, and what remains is for the closest male."
