باب في مِيرَاثِ ذَوِي الأَرْحَامِ:Chapter on inheritance of distant relatives
Hadith 3014
أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سَالِمٍ، عَنْ الشَّعْبِيِّ، عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ: "الْخَالَةُ بِمَنْزِلَةِ الْأُمِّ، وَالْعَمَّةُ بِمَنْزِلَةِ الْأَبِ، وَبِنْتُ الْأَخِ بِمَنْزِلَةِ الْأَخِ، وَكُلُّ ذِي رَحِمٍ بِمَنْزِلَةِ رَحِمِهِ الَّتِي يُدْلِي بِهَا إِذَا لَمْ يَكُنْ وَارِثٌ ذُو قَرَابَةٍ".
It is narrated from Masruq (may Allah have mercy on him): Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The maternal aunt is in the rank of the mother, and the paternal aunt is in the rank of the father, and the niece is in the rank of the brother, and every relative by womb (kin) is in the rank of the one who is the closest relative to the deceased, as long as there is no closer heir.
