Musnad of Abdullah bin Mas'ud
Musnad Abi Ya'la 5108 — Sayyiduna Abu Musa and Sayyiduna Salman bin
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبِي بَكْرٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ ، عَنْ أَبِي قَيْسٍ ، عَنْ هُزَيْلٍ ، أَنَّ أَبَا مُوسَى ، وَسَلْمَانَ بْنَ رَبِيعَةَ سُئِلَا عَنِ ابْنَةٍ ، وَابْنَةِ ابْنٍ ، وَأُخْتٍ ، فَقَالَا : لِلْأُخْتِ النِّصْفُ ، وَلِلِابْنَةِ النِّصْفُ ، فَسُئِلَ عَبْدُ اللهِ ، فَقَالَ : لَقَدْ ضَلَلْتُ إِذًا وَمَا أَنَا مِنَ الْمُهْتَدِينَ ، أَقُولُ كَمَا قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : لِلِابْنَةِ النِّصْفُ ، وَلِابْنَةِ الِابْنِ السُّدُسُ تَكْمِلَةُ الثُّلُثَيْنِ ، وَمَا بَقِيَ فَلِلْأُخْتِ .
It is narrated from Huzayl (may Allah have mercy on him) that Sayyiduna Abu Musa (may Allah be pleased with him) and Sayyiduna Salman bin Rabi'ah (may Allah be pleased with him) were asked about the inheritance of a daughter, a son's daughter and a sister. They both said: "The sister gets half and the daughter gets half." Then when Sayyiduna Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) was asked, he said: "(If I gave a ruling against the truth,) then I would have gone astray and would not be of the rightly guided. I will give the ruling that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) gave: The daughter gets half, the son's daughter gets a sixth to complete the two-thirds, and whatever remains goes to the sister."
