Chapter 4, Mishna 1, 2

The uncertain heir poses some tricky problems. Is he the son of the original husband who died, or the yavam who stepped in to perform yibum? The ramifications for the laws of inheritance are complex… A widow awaiting yibum/chalitzah inherits property, and then dies. Does her yavam have any rights to that property, like he would had he performed yibum before she died?
