حَدَّثَنَا الْفَضْلُ بْنُ الصَّبَّاحِ الْبَغْدَادِيُّ، أَخْبَرَنَا سُفْيَانُ ابْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ، أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُنْكَدِرِ، سَمِعَ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، يَقُولُ : " مَرِضْتُ فَأَتَانِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَعُودُنِي فَوَجَدَنِي قَدْ أُغْمِيَ عَلَيَّ ، فَأَتَى وَمَعَهُ أَبُو بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرُ ، وَهُمَا مَاشِيَانِ ، فَتَوَضَّأَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَصَبَّ عَلَيَّ مِنْ وَضُوئِهِ ، فَأَفَقْتُ ، فَقُلْتُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، كَيْفَ أَقْضِي فِي مَالِي ، أَوْ كَيْفَ أَصْنَعُ فِي مَالِي ، فَلَمْ يُجِبْنِي شَيْئًا ، وَكَانَ لَهُ تِسْعُ أَخَوَاتٍ حَتَّى نَزَلَتْ آيَةُ الْمِيرَاثِ يَسْتَفْتُونَكَ قُلِ اللَّهُ يُفْتِيكُمْ فِي الْكَلالَةِ سورة النساء آية 176الْآيَةَ " ، قَالَ جَابِرٌ : فِيَّ نَزَلَتْ ، قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى : هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ .
´Jabir bin 'Abdullah said:` "I was ill, so the Messenger of Allah(S.A.W)came to visit me and found me unconscious. He came walking while Abu Bakr and 'Umar were with him. The Messenger of Allah(S.A.W) performed Wudu, then poured the remaining water on me, so I came to my senses. I said: 'O Messenger of Allah(S.A.W)! how shall I dispose of my wealth?' - or - 'What shall I do with my wealth?' He did not reply anything to me" -and he had nine sisters- "until the Ayah about the inheritance was revealed: they ask you for a legal verdict. Say: "Allah directs (thus) about Al-Kalalah." Jabir said: "It was revealed regarding me."

Shaykh Maulana Abdul Aziz Alvi
Hadith Commentary:
Benefits and Issues:
In the narration of Ibn Umar radi Allahu anhuma, where there is mention of prayer in general terms, what is meant is voluntary (nafl) prayer. This is because in the narration of his son Salim, it is explicitly stated that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam did not perform obligatory (fard) prayers on his mount.

Shaykh Dr. Abdur Rahman Freywai
Explanation:
1:
In the next narration, which is from the Sahihayn, mention is made of sisters instead of children,
and the correct account is indeed that at that time Jabir radi Allahu anhu did not have any children,
therefore, despite this narration being authentic, it falls under the category of "shaadh" (anomalous) (see the next narration).

Shaykh Umar Farooq Saeedi
Benefits and Issues:
Shaykh al-Albani has declared this narration to be hasan (good).
And he further stated that these girls were not the daughters of Thabit ibn Qays.
Rather, they were the daughters of Sa'd ibn Rabi' radi Allahu anhu.
As is also mentioned in the narration that follows,
that the aforementioned girls were the daughters of Sa'd ibn Rabi' radi Allahu anhu.
And in this division, the original issue will be calculated from 24: sixteen shares (two-thirds) for the daughters, three shares (one-eighth) for the wife, and the remaining five shares will go to the uncle.
