باب مِيرَاثِ الْغَرْقَى:Chapter on inheritance of those who drowned
Hadith 3077
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ حَسَّانَ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ خَارِجَةَ بْنِ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ، قَالَ: "كُلُّ قَوْمٍ مُتَوَارِثِينَ عَمِيَ مَوْتُهُمْ فِي هَدْمٍ، أَوْ غَرَقٍ، فَإِنَّهُمْ لَا يَتَوَارَثُونَ، يَرِثُهُمْ الْأَحْيَاءُ".
Sayyiduna Zaid bin Thabit (may Allah be pleased with him) said: All kinds of people will inherit from each other, but those whose death is unknown due to a building collapse or drowning will not inherit from each other; only the living person will be their heir.
