باب مَا لِلنِّسَاءِ مِنَ الْوَلاَءِ:Chapter on women's share of wala'
Hadith 3177
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عِيسَى، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو سُفْيَانَ، عَنْ مَعْمَرٍ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ، قَالَ: "تُوُفِّيَ رَجُلٌ وَتَرَكَ مُكَاتَبًا، ثُمَّ مَاتَ الْمُكَاتَبُ وَتَرَكَ مَالًا، فَجَعَلَ ابْنُ الْمُسَيَّبِ، وَأَبُو سَلَمَةَ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ مَا بَقِيَ مِنْ مُكَاتَبَتِهِ بَيْنَ بَنِي مَوْلَاهُ الرِّجَالُ وَالنِّسَاءُ عَلَى مِيرَاثِهِمْ، وَمَا فَضَلَ مِنْ الْمَالِ بَعْدَ كِتَابَتِهِ، فَلِلرِّجَالِ مِنْهُمْ مِنْ بَنِي مَوْلَاهُ، دُونَ النِّسَاءِ".
It is narrated from Mu’ammar that Yahya bin Abi Kathir said: A man passed away and he left behind a slave under a contract of manumission (mukatab). Then that mukatab also died. In this situation, Ibn al-Musayyib and Abu Salamah bin Abdur Rahman divided the amount remaining from the contract of manumission among the owner’s sons and daughters (male and female). Then, whatever wealth of the mukatab remained after the contract of manumission, it was divided among the male heirs of the slave’s owner, not among the women.
