The Book of Inheritance (Fara'id)

كتاب الفرائض

Hadith 26:241

Ibn ‘Uyaynah narrated to us, from al-Zuhri, from Qabisah, who said: The grandmother—the mother of the mother or the mother of the father—came after the Messenger of Allah (may Allah bless him and grant him peace) to Abu Bakr and said: "My son’s son or my daughter’s son has died, and I have been informed that I have a right [to an inheritance]." Abu Bakr said: "I do not find for you any right in the Book of Allah, nor have I heard anything regarding you from the Messenger of Allah (may Allah bless him and grant him peace). I will ask the people." Al-Mughirah ibn Shu’bah testified that the Prophet (may Allah bless him and grant him peace) gave her one-sixth. He [Abu Bakr] said: "Who will testify with you?" He said: "Muhammad ibn Maslamah." So he testified, and he [Abu Bakr] gave her the one-sixth. The grandmother who was on the other side [the paternal grandmother] came to ‘Umar, and he gave her the one-sixth. He said: "If you both gather, it is between you." Ma’mar added: "And whichever of you is alone with it, it is for her."

حدثنا بن عيينة عن الزهري عن قبيصة قال جاءت الجدة بالأم وبن الابن بعد رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم إلى أبي بكر فقالت إن بن ابني أو بن ابنتي مات وقد اخبرت أن لي حقا فقال أبو بكر ما أجد لك في كتاب الله من حق وما سمعت فيك شيئا من رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم وسأسأل الناس قال فشهد المغيرة بن شعبة ان النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم أعطاها السدس فقال من يشهد معك قال محمد بن مسلمة فشهد فأعطاها السدس وجاءت الجدة التي تخالفها إلى عمر فأعطاها السدس فقال إذا اجتمعتما فهو بينكما زاد معمر وأيكما انفردت به فهو لها
