Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Whenever Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) went in any direction and we followed him, we found the matter to be easy. He made a decision regarding the inheritance of a wife and parents that the issue would be from four: one-fourth to the wife, one-third (of what remains) to the mother, and the remainder, which is two parts, would be for the father.
