Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah

A'mash narrates that I once heard Sha'bi in the mosque saying: I have heard such a hadith that among those who heard it, no one except me is still alive. I heard 'Amr bin Shurahbil saying: Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: O people of Yemen! It often happens among you that a man dies and leaves behind no agnatic relatives; such a person has the choice to dispose of his wealth as he wishes. A'mash says: I mentioned to Ibrahim that Sha'bi had said this. Ibrahim replied: Hammam bin al-Harith narrated to me from 'Amr bin Shurahbil from Abdullah the same statement.
