باب مِيرَاثِ الصَّبِيِّ:
Chapter on inheritance of the child
Hadith 3159
أَخْبَرَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ، أَنْبَأَنَا الْأَشْعَثُ، عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ: "إِذَا اسْتَهَلَّ الصَّبِيُّ، وُرِّثَ وَصُلِّيَ عَلَيْهِ".
Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: When a (newborn) child lets out a loud cry (i.e., cries at birth), he will be considered an heir and the funeral prayer will also be offered for him.
Hadith 3160
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ، حَدَّثَنَا شَرِيكٌ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاق، عَنْ عَطَاءٍ، عَنْ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ: "إِذَا اسْتَهَلَّ الصَّبِيُّ، وَرِثَ وَوُرِثَ وَصُلِّيَ عَلَيْهِ".
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them): When a child cries (at birth), he will also be an heir, and he will be made an heir, and his funeral prayer will also be performed.
Hadith 3161
حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيل، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْرَائِيلُ، عَنْ سِمَاكٍ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ، عَنْ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ: "لَيْسَ مِنْ مَوْلُودٍ إِلَّا يَسْتَهِلُّ، وَاسْتِهْلَالُهُ بِعَصْرِ الشَّيْطَانُ بَطْنَهُ، فَيَصِيحُ، إِلَّا عِيسَى ابْنَ مَرْيَمَ".
Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: Every newborn child cries, and his crying is because the devil presses his belly, so he begins to cry, except for Isa ibn Maryam (peace be upon him).
Hadith 3162
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ حَسَّانَ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى هُوَ ابْنُ حَمْزَةَ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ وَاقِدٍ، عَنْ مَكْحُولٍ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: "لَا يَرِثُ الْمَوْلُودُ حَتَّى يَسْتَهِلَّ صَارِخًا، وَإِنْ وَقَعَ حَيًّا".
Makhul said: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: A newborn will not be an heir until he cries out, even if he was born alive.
Hadith 3163
حَدَّثَنَا يَعْلَى، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاق، عَنْ عَطَاءٍ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ، قَالَ: "إِذَا اسْتَهَلَّ الْمَوْلُودُ، صُلِّيَ عَلَيْهِ وَوُرِثَ".
Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) said: When a child cries out (at birth), the funeral prayer will be offered for him and he will be considered an heir.
Hadith 3164
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا مَعْنٌ، عَنْ ابْنِ أَبِي ذِئْبٍ، عَنْ الزُّهْرِيِّ، قَالَ: أَرَى "الْعُطَاسَ اسْتِهْلَالًا".
Imam Zuhri, may Allah have mercy on him, said: I consider sneezing to be like istihlal (the newborn's first cry).
Hadith 3165
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو النُّعْمَانِ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ، عَنْ مُغِيرَةَ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، قَالَ: "لَا يُوَرَّثُ الْمَوْلُودُ حَتَّى يَسْتَهِلَّ، وَلَا يُصَلَّى عَلَيْهِ حَتَّى يَسْتَهِلَّ، فَإِذَا اسْتَهَلَّ، صُلِّيَ عَلَيْهِ وَوُرِّثَ، وَكُمِّلَتْ الدِّيَةُ".
Ibrahim, may Allah have mercy on him, said: A newborn will not be considered an heir until he cries, and the funeral prayer will not be performed over him until he makes a sound. But when he makes a sound, then the prayer will be performed over him, he will be made an heir, and his full blood money (diyah) will be due. That is, if someone kills him, the full diyah will be given, just as it is given for a grown person.
Hadith 3166
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ صَالِحٍ، حَدَّثَنِي اللَّيْثُ، حَدَّثَنِي يُونُسُ، عَنْ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ: وَسَأَلْنَاهُ عَنْ السِّقْطِ، فَقَالَ: "لَا يُصَلَّى عَلَيْهِ، وَلَا يُصَلَّى عَلَى مَوْلُودٍ حَتَّى يَسْتَهِلَّ صَارِخًا".
Yunus said: We asked Ibn Shihab al-Zuhri, may Allah have mercy on him, about a pregnancy that ends incomplete (miscarriage), so he said: The funeral prayer will not be performed over it, and the funeral prayer will also not be performed over a newborn until it cries.
