مِيرَاثِ الْكَلاَلَةِ

حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ بُكَيْرٍ النَّاقِدُ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْمُنْكَدِرِ، سَمِعَ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللهِ، قَالَ: مَرِضْتُ فَأَتَانِي رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ يَعُودَانِي مَاشِيَيْنِ، فَأُغْمِيَ عَلَيَّ، فَتَوَضَّأَ، ثُمَّ صَبَّ عَلَيَّ مِنْ وَضُوئِهِ، فَأَفَقْتُ، قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، كَيْفَ أَقْضِي فِي مَالِي؟ فَلَمْ يَرُدَّ عَلَيَّ شَيْئًا، حَتَّى نَزَلَتْ آيَةُ الْمِيرَاثِ: {يَسْتَفْتُونَكَ قُلِ اللهُ يُفْتِيكُمْ فِي الْكَلَالَةِ.

Inheritance Of The Kalalah

I fell sick and there came to me on foot Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) and Abu Bakr رضی اللہ عنہ for inquiring after my health. I fainted. He (the Holy Prophet) performed ablution and then sprinkled over me the water of his ablution. I felt some relief and said: Allah's Messenger, how should I decide about my property? He said nothing to me in response until this verse pertaining to the law of inheritance was revealed: They ask you for a decision; say: Allah gives you a decision concerning the person who has neither parents nor children (iv. 177).
