باب في ابْنَيْ عَمٍّ أَحَدُهُمَا زَوْجٌ وَالآخَرُ أَخٌ لأُمٍّ:Chapter on two paternal cousins, one a husband and the other a maternal brother
Hadith 2923
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاق، عَنْ الْحَارِثِ، عَنْ عَلِي: أَنَّهُ أُتِيَ فِي ابْنَيْ عَمٍّ أَحَدُهُمَا أَخٌ لِأُمٍّ، فَقِيلَ لِعَلِيٍّ: إِنَّ ابْنَ مَسْعُودٍ كَانَ يُعْطِيهِ الْمَالَ كُلَّهُ، فَقَالَ عَلِيٌّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ: إِنْ كَانَ لَفَقِيهًا، وَلَوْ كُنْتُ أَنَا "أَعْطَيْتُهُ السُّدُسَ، وَمَا بَقِيَ كَانَ بَيْنَهُمْ".
Harith al-A'war narrated that a case regarding Banu 'Am was brought to Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him), among whom one was his maternal brother. Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) was informed that Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) had made him the heir of the entire wealth. Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said: He is indeed a jurist, but if I were in his place, I would have given him one-sixth, and whatever remained, I would have distributed among all the Banu 'Am.
