في بني عم أحدهم الزوجChapter on Paternal Cousins, One of Whom Is a Husband
Hadith 33158
٣٣١٥٨ - حدثنا وكيع عن شعبة عن أوس عن حكيم بن (عقال) (١) قال: أُتي علي في ابني عم أحدهما زوج والآخر أخ لأم فقال لشريح: قل فيها، فقال شريح: للزوج النصف، (و) (٢) ما بقي فللأخ، فقال له علي: رأي، قال: كذلك رأيت، فأعطى عليٌ الزوج النصف، والأخ السدس، وجعل ما بقي بينهما (٣).
Hakeem bin Iqal narrates that a case was brought before Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) regarding two paternal cousins, one of whom was the husband and the other was a maternal brother. He asked Hazrat Shurayh, "What is your opinion about this?" Hazrat Shurayh replied, "Half is for the husband and the remainder is for the brother." Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "Is this your opinion?" He replied, "This is my opinion." So Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) gave half of the wealth to the husband, one-sixth to the brother, and distributed the remaining wealth between the two.
