Hayan bin Salman said: I was with Suwaid bin Ghaflah when a man came to him and asked about the shares of inheritance: A man left behind his daughter and his wife. He (Suwaid) said: I will tell you the ruling of Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) regarding this. The man said: The ruling of Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) is sufficient for me. Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) gave the wife one-eighth and the daughter one-half, then whatever remained was also returned to the daughter.
