There is no information whether Eldest brother is alive or not
However if eldest brother is alive his son will not get any right. If eldest brother died before death of your uncle then also he be excluded from succession. Only living brothers and sisters succeed to the property of your uncle. This is as per mohammadan law.

While issuing the Legal heir certificate the authority shall issue in the names of legal heirs as per personal law that is applicable in the matter.
