Hadith 8572
(وَعَنْهُ مِنْ طَرِيقٍ ثَانٍ) قَالَ دَخَلَ عَلَيَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَأَنَا وَجِعٌ لَا أَعْقِلُ قَالَ فَتَوَضَّأَ ثُمَّ صَبَّ عَلَيَّ أَوْ قَالَ صُبُّوا عَلَيْهِ فَعَقَلْتُ فَقُلْتُ إِنَّهُ لَا يَرِثُنِي إِلَّا كَلَالَةٌ فَكَيْفَ الْمِيرَاثُ قَالَ فَنَزَلَتْ آيَةُ الْفَرْضِ
(Second chain) Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) says: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came to me while I was in pain and unconscious. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) performed ablution and poured water over me, or he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Pour water over him." So I regained consciousness. I said: "My heirs are only kinsfolk (kalalah); in such a case, how will the inheritance be distributed?" Then the verse regarding inheritance was revealed.
عَنِ ابْنِ الْمُنْكَدِرِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ جَابِرًا رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ يَقُولُ مَرِضْتُ فَأَتَانِي النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَعُودُنِي هُوَ وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ مَاشِيَيْنِ وَقَدْ أُغْمِيَ عَلَيَّ فَلَمْ أُكَلِّمْهُ فَتَوَضَّأَ فَصَبَّهُ عَلَيَّ فَأَفَقْتُ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ كَيْفَ أَصْنَعُ فِي مَالِي وَلِي أَخَوَاتٌ قَالَ فَنَزَلَتْ آيَةُ الْمِيرَاثِ يَسْتَفْتُونَكَ قُلِ اللَّهُ يُفْتِيكُمْ فِي الْكَلَالَةِ كَانَ لَيْسَ لَهُ وَلَدٌ وَلَهُ أَخَوَاتٌ إِنِ امْرُؤٌ هَلَكَ لَيْسَ لَهُ وَلَدٌ وَلَهُ أُخْتٌ [سورة النساء: ١٧٦]
Narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: I fell ill and the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) came on foot to visit me. I was unconscious, so I could not speak to you. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) performed ablution and poured water over me, which made me regain consciousness. I said: O Messenger of Allah! What should I do with my wealth, while my sisters are my heirs? Then this verse regarding inheritance was revealed {یَسْتَفْتُونَکَ قُلِ اللّٰہُ یُفْتِیکُمْ فِی الْکَلَالَۃِ} … People ask you for a legal verdict. Say: Allah gives you a verdict concerning kalalah. Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) had no children, only sisters, {إِنْ امْرُؤٌ ہَلَکَ لَیْسَ لَہُ وَلَدٌ وَلَہُ أُخْتٌ} … If a man dies and has no children and he has a sister.

Hadith 8573
عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ عَنْ جَابِرٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ اشْتَكَيْتُ وَعِنْدِي سَبْعُ أَخَوَاتٍ لِي فَدَخَلَ عَلَيَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَنَضَحَ فِي وَجْهِي فَأَفَقْتُ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أُوصِي لِأَخَوَاتِي بِالثُّلُثَيْنِ قَالَ أَحْسِنْ قُلْتُ بِالشَّطْرِ قَالَ أَحْسِنْ قَالَ ثُمَّ خَرَجَ وَتَرَكَنِي ثُمَّ رَجَعَ فَقَالَ يَا جَابِرُ إِنِّي لَا أَرَاكَ مَيِّتًا مِنْ وَجَعِكَ هَذَا فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ قَدْ أَنْزَلَ فَبَيَّنَ الَّذِي لِأَخَوَاتِكَ فَجَعَلَ لَهُنَّ الثُّلُثَيْنِ فَكَانَ جَابِرٌ يَقُولُ نَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ فِيَّ يَسْتَفْتُونَكَ قُلِ اللَّهُ يُفْتِيكُمْ فِي الْكَلَالَةِ [سورة النساء: ١٧٦]
Narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: I fell ill, and I had seven sisters. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) came to me and sprinkled water on my face, and I regained consciousness. I said: O Messenger of Allah! Should I bequeath two-thirds of my wealth for my sisters? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Do more. I said: Should I bequeath half of my wealth? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Do more. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) left me and then returned and said: O Jabir! I think you will not die from this illness. In any case, Allah Almighty has revealed the Qur’an and clarified the share of your sisters and has given them two-thirds. Sayyiduna Jabir used to say: This verse was revealed about me: {یَسْتَفْتُونَکَ قُلِ اللّٰہُ یُفْتِیکُمْ فِی الْکَلَالَۃِ}.
Hadith 8574
عَنِ الْبَرَاءِ بْنِ عَازِبٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَسَأَلَهُ عَنِ الْكَلَالَةِ فَقَالَ تَكْفِيكَ آيَةُ الصَّيْفِ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Bara’ bin Azib (may Allah be pleased with him) that a man came to the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and asked him about kalalah. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The verse revealed in summer is sufficient for you.
