It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came to me while I was so ill that I was unconscious. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) performed ablution and either poured that water over me or ordered it to be poured over me. I regained consciousness and said: Among my heirs, there is no one except "kalalah" (distant relatives); how will the inheritance be distributed? Upon this, the verse regarding the distribution of inheritance was revealed.
