Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah

Ibrahim states that when a woman died leaving behind paternal cousins, among whom one was her maternal brother, regarding this, Hazrat Umar, Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with them), and Hazrat Zaid (may Allah be pleased with him) gave the verdict that her maternal brother will receive one-sixth, and then he will share in the remainder of the wealth with the others. And regarding this, Hazrat Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) gave the verdict that the wealth will go only to him, not to the other paternal cousins of the deceased. Abu Bakr states that this issue, according to the opinion of Hazrat Umar, Hazrat Ali, and Hazrat Zaid (may Allah be pleased with them), will be resolved from six shares, and according to the opinion of Hazrat Abdullah and Shurayh (may Allah be pleased with them), it will be resolved from one share, and that will be the entire wealth.
