حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ بُكَيْرٍ النَّاقِدُ ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْمُنْكَدِرِ ، سَمِعَ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، قَالَ : " مَرِضْتُ فَأَتَانِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ يَعُودَانِي مَاشِيَيْنِ فَأُغْمِيَ عَلَيَّ ، فَتَوَضَّأَ ثُمَّ صَبَّ عَلَيَّ مِنْ وَضُوئِهِ ، فَأَفَقْتُ ، قُلْتُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ كَيْفَ أَقْضِي فِي مَالِي ؟ فَلَمْ يَرُدَّ عَلَيَّ شَيْئًا حَتَّى نَزَلَتْ آيَةُ الْمِيرَاثِ يَسْتَفْتُونَكَ قُلِ اللَّهُ يُفْتِيكُمْ فِي الْكَلالَةِ سورة النساء آية 176 " .
Jabir bin 'Abdullah (RA) reported: I fell sick and there came to me on foot Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and Abu Bakr (RA) for inquiring after my health. I fainted. He (the Holy Prophet) performed ablution and then sprinkled over me the water of his ablution. I felt some relief and said: Allah's Messenger, how should I decide about my property? He said nothing to me in response until this verse pertaining to the law of inheritance was revealed: "They ask you for a decision; say: Allah gives you a decision concerning the person who has neither parents nor children" (iv. 177).
