الغرقى من كان يورث بعضهم من بعضRegarding Those Who Drown, and Those Who Consider Drowned Persons as Heirs to Each Other
Hadith 33468
٣٣٤٦٨ - حدثنا هشيم عن مغيرة قال: أخبرني (قطن) (١) بن عبد اللَّه الضبي أن امرأة ركبت (٢) الفرات ومعها ابن لها فغرقا جميعًا، فلم يدر أيهما مات قبل صاحبه فأتينا شريحا فأخبرناه بذلك، فقال: ورثوا كل واحد منهما من صاحبه ولا تردوا على واحد منهما (مما) (٣) ورث من صاحبه شيئًا.
Qatan bin Abdullah Dhabbi narrates that a woman traveled to the Euphrates along with her son, and both of them drowned, and it was not known which of them died before the other. We went to Hazrat Shurayh and informed him of this. He said: Make each of them the heir of the other, and do not return to either of them the wealth which he or she inherited from the other.
