It is narrated from Muhammad bin Yahya bin Habban that his grandfather Habban had two wives: one from Banu Hashim and the other from the Ansar. He divorced the Ansari woman while she was nursing; a year passed over her, then he died, and she had not menstruated. The Ansari woman said: I am his heir, because I have not menstruated. The two of them took their dispute to Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him). Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) decided the inheritance in her favour. The Hashimi woman blamed Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him). Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) said: It was your cousin who advised us of this, meaning Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him).
