It is narrated from Ikrimah that Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrated that some people brought a dispute regarding the child of the *Mutala‘inayn* to Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him). The people from the father's side (the 'Asabah) also came to claim their share of inheritance. Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said: His father has disowned him (therefore) you have no share in his inheritance. And he decided that the inheritance would go to the mother of the child (of *Mula'anah*) and made the mother his 'Asabah (agnate).
