English translation
The mandatory bequest shall take precedence over other bequests. If the deceased did not make a bequest to those entitled to the mandatory bequest and made bequests to others, each person entitled to the mandatory bequest shall be entitled to the amount of his share from the remainder of the third of the estate if it suffices; otherwise, from that remainder and from what was bequeathed to others.

الوصيــة وأوصى لغيرهــم، اســتحق كل مــن وجبــت لهــم الوصيــة قــدر نصيبــه مــن باقــي
ثلــث التركــة أن وفي وإلا فمنــه وممــا أوصى بــه لغيرهــم.Ask about this article
