Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 32835 — A man who bequeathed one half, one

Abu Asim al-Thaqafi said: Ibrahim met me and asked: What do you say about a man who made a bequest of a half, a third and a quarter of his wealth? I had no knowledge of the answer. He himself said: Make as many parts of his wealth as will yield a half, a third and a quarter, that is, make twelve parts. Its half is six, its third is four and its quarter is three. Now make thirteen parts of the wealth. Whatever wealth corresponds to six, give to the one with the half; whatever wealth corresponds to four, give to the one with the third; and whatever wealth corresponds to three, give to the person with the quarter.
