Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 29783 — A man who commits an offence and has
٢٩٧٨٣ - حدثنا أبو بكر قال: حدثنا وكيع قال: حدثنا ربيعة بن عثمان التيمي عن (سعد) (١) بن إبراهيم أن أبا موسى كتب إلى عمر أن (الرجل) (٢) يموت قبلنا وليس له رحم ولا (ولي) (٣) قال: فكتب إليه عمر: إن ترك ذا رحم فالرحم، وإلا (فالولاء) (٤)، وإلا فبيت المال يرثونه ويعقلون عنه (٥).
Sa'd bin Ibrahim said: Sayyiduna Abu Musa (may Allah be pleased with him) wrote to Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him): A man has died among us who has neither a relative nor a guardian. Sayyiduna Umar wrote back to him: If he has left a relative, the relative has the right; otherwise his patrons; and if there are none, the public treasury will inherit from him and will pay blood money on his behalf.
