English narration

Narrated by عمران بن حصين الأزدي

Narrated Imran ibn Husayn: A man came to the Prophet ﷺ and said: My son has died; what do I receive from his estate? He replied: You receive a sixth. When he turned away he called him and said: You receive another sixth. When he turned away, he called him and said: The other sixth is an allowance (beyond what is due). Qatadah said: They (the Companions) did not know the heirs with whom he was given (a sixth). Qatadah said: The minimum share given to the grandfather was a sixth.

النص العربي

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ كَثِيرٍ ، أَخْبَرَنَا هَمَّامٌ ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ ، عَنْ الْحَسَنِ ، عَنْ عِمْرَانَ بْنِ حُصَيْنً ، أَنَّ رَجُلًا أَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ : "

إِنَّ ابْنَ ابْنِي مَاتَ فَمَا لِي مِنْ مِيرَاثِهِ ، فَقَالَ : لَكَ السُّدُسُ فَلَمَّا أَدْبَرَ دَعَاهُ ، فَقَالَ : لَكَ سُدُسٌ آخَرُ فَلَمَّا أَدْبَرَ دَعَاهُ ، فَقَالَ : إِنَّ السُّدُسَ الْآخَرَ طُعْمَةٌ ، قَالَ قَتَادَةُ : فَلَا يَدْرُونَ مَعَ أَيِّ شَيْءٍ وَرَّثَهُ قَالَ قَتَادَةُ : أَقَلُّ شَيْءٍ وَرِثَ الْجَدُّ السُّدُسُ
