Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 18002 — A man who marries a woman and dies

Nafi' (may Allah have mercy on him) said: A son of Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) married a daughter of Sayyiduna Ubaydullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with him). The girl's mother was Asma' bint Zayd bin al-Khattab. This son of Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) died before her dowry had been fixed. The girl's family demanded the dowry and the inheritance from Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both). Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: "She will receive the inheritance, but she will not receive a dowry." The people rejected this view of Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both), so they appointed Sayyiduna Zayd bin Thabit (may Allah be pleased with him) as arbiter, and Sayyiduna Zayd said: "She will receive the inheritance, but she will not receive a dowry."
