حَدَّثَنَا
مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ، حَدَّثَنَا
سُفْيَانُ الثَّوْرِيُّ، عَنْ
أَبِي قَيْسٍ الْأَوْدِيِّ، عَنْ
هُزَيْلِ بْنِ شُرَحْبِيلَ، قَالَ: جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى أَبِي مُوسَى الْأَشْعَرِيِّ، وَإِلَى سَلْمَانَ بْنِ رَبِيعَةَ فَسَأَلَهُمَا عَنْ بِنْتٍ، وَبِنْتِ ابْنٍ، وَأُخْتٍ لِأُمٍّ وَأَبٍ، فَقَالَا: لِلِابْنَةِ النِّصْفُ، وَمَا بَقِيَ فَلِلْأُخْتِ، وَأْتِ ابْنَ مَسْعُودٍ فَإِنَّهُ سَيُتَابِعُنَا، فَجَاءَ الرَّجُلُ إِلَى
عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، فَسَأَلَهُ عَنْ ذَلِكَ، فَقَالَ: لَقَدْ ضَلَلْتُ إِذًا، وَمَا أَنَا مِنْ الْمُهْتَدِينَ، وَإِنِّي أَقْضِي بِمَا"قَضَى بِهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:
لِلِابْنَةِ النِّصْفُ، وَلِابْنَةِ الِابْنِ السُّدُسُ، وَمَا بَقِيَ فَلِلْأُخْتِ".
Huzail bin Shurahbeel said: A man came to Abu Musa Ash’ari and Salman bin Rabee’ah and asked both of them about the inheritance shares of a daughter, a son’s daughter (granddaughter), and a full sister. Both of them said: The daughter will get half, and all the remainder is for the sister (because the presence of the daughter blocks the granddaughter). Then they said: Go to Sayyiduna Ibn Mas’ud (may Allah be pleased with him), perhaps he will support our opinion. So the man went to Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas’ud (may Allah be pleased with him) and asked him for a ruling about this. He said: If I give such a ruling, I would go astray and would not be among the rightly guided. I only give the ruling as the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) gave: the daughter gets half, the granddaughter gets one-sixth, and whatever remains is for the sister.
