جَاءَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَعُودُنِي، وَأَنَا مَرِيضٌ لاَ أَعْقِلُ، فَتَوَضَّأَ وَصَبَّ عَلَىَّ مِنْ وَضُوئِهِ، فَعَقَلْتُ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ لِمَنِ الْمِيرَاثُ إِنَّمَا يَرِثُنِي كَلاَلَةٌ. فَنَزَلَتْ آيَةُ الْفَرَائِضِ.

Translation

Jabir ibn Abdullah reported: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to visit me while I was ill and unconscious. He performed ablution (wudu) and poured some of his ablution water over me, and I regained consciousness. I said, “O Messenger of Allah, to whom does the inheritance go? Only a kalalah will inherit from me.” Then the verse of the inheritance shares was revealed.

Translator’s note: Kalalah: the relatives of a deceased person who leaves neither parents nor children. According to the narrations, the verse of the inheritance shares is Qur'an 4:11 or 4:176.

Dschabir ibn Abdullah berichtete: Der Gesandte Allahs ﷺ kam, um mich zu besuchen, als ich krank und ohne Bewusstsein war. Er vollzog die Gebetswaschung und goss etwas von seinem Waschwasser über mich, und ich kam zu Bewusstsein. Da sagte ich: „O Gesandter Allahs, wem gehört das Erbe? Mich beerbt doch nur eine Kalala.“ Da wurde der Vers über die Erbteile herabgesandt.

Translator’s note: Kalala: die Verwandten eines Verstorbenen, der weder Eltern noch Kinder hinterlässt. Mit dem Vers über die Erbteile ist nach den Überlieferungen Koran 4:11 bzw. 4:176 gemeint.
