Bayhaqi 12222 — Those who held that relatives through the womb inherit

Mughirah (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates from his companions that Sayyiduna Ali and Sayyiduna Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with them both), when they did not find anyone with a fixed share, would give to the relatives. They gave the daughter's daughter all the wealth, and the maternal uncle all the wealth; likewise the brother's daughter and the sister's daughter, whether through the mother, through both father and mother, or through the father, were given the wealth; and the paternal aunt, the paternal uncle's daughter, the daughter of the son's daughter, and the maternal grandfather, whether near or distant, when they were blood relatives, were all given the wealth in the absence of anyone else. If a daughter's daughter and a sister's daughter are found, it is to be given half and half; if there is a paternal aunt and a maternal aunt, it will be one-third and two-thirds; and the daughter of the maternal uncle and the daughter of the maternal aunt are to be given one-third and two-thirds.
