Hadith 1235
اُردوEn
سَعِيدٌ قَالَ: نا هُشَيْمٌ، قَالَ: أنا عَوْفٌ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ، قَالَ: كَتَبَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ إِلَى عَامِلٍ لَهُ أَنْ أَعْطِ الْجَدَّ مَعَ الْأَخِ الشَّطْرَ، وَمَعَ الْأَخَوَيْنِ الثُّلُثَ، وَمَعَ الثَّلَاثَةِ الرُّبُعَ، وَمَعَ الْأَرْبَعَةِ الْخُمُسَ، وَمَعَ الْخَمْسَةِ السُّدُسَ، فَإِذَا كَانُوا أَكْثَرَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ فَلَا تَنْقُصْهُ مِنَ السُّدُسِ "
It is narrated from Hasan (may Allah have mercy on him) that Sayyiduna Umar bin Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) wrote to his governor: "Give the grandfather half with one brother, a third with two brothers, a quarter with three brothers, a fifth with four brothers, a sixth with five brothers, and if there are more brothers, do not make the grandfather's share less than a sixth."
