حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ، عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ مُسْهِرٍ، عَنْ الشَّيْبَانِيِّ، عَنْ الْحَكَمِ، عَنْ شَمُوسَ الْكِنْدِيَّةِ، قَالَتْ: "قَاضَيْتُ إِلَى عَلِيٍّ فِي أَبٍ مَاتَ فَلَمْ يَدَعْ أَحَدًا غَيْرِي، وَمَوْلَاهُ، فَأَعْطَانِي النِّصْفَ، َوَأَعْطَى مَوْلَاهُ النِّصْفَ".
Shumus al-Kindiya said: I went to Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) with a case that my father had left me and the owner (the emancipator), so he gave me half and the remaining half to the emancipating owner.
Brief Explanation
(Commentary on Hadith 3046)
In the absence of the fixed-share heirs (ashab al-furud), the daughter's share is half, and whatever remains belongs to the master (wali). Based on this very principle, Sayyiduna Ali radi Allahu anhu made this decision.
