And regarding the verse And those with whom your right hands have made a pledge. Ibn Abbas said; When the emigrants came to the Prophet ﷺ in Medina; the emigrant would inherit the Ansari while the latter relatives would not inherit him because of the bond of brotherhood which the Prophet established between them i.e. the emigrants and the Ansar. When the verse: And to everyone We have appointed heirs 4.33 was revealed; it canceled the bond the pledge of brotherhood regarding inheritance. Then he said; The verse: To those also to whom your right hands have pledged; remained valid regarding cooperation and mutual advice; while the matter of inheritance was excluded and it became permissible to assign something in one testament to the person who had the right of inheriting before.The Chapter on Inheritance And Heirs in HodHood Indexing, Chapter on The Statement of Allah jala jalaaluhu To those also with whom you have made a pledge give them their due portion by Wasiya in Sahih AlBukhari

When the Emigrants came to Medina; an Emigrant used to be the heir of an Ansari with the exclusion of the latter relatives; and that was because of the bond of brotherhood which the Prophet ﷺ had established between them i.e. the Emigrants and the Ansar. So when the Verses:- To everyone We have appointed heirs. was revealed; the inheritance through bond of brotherhood was cancelled. Ibn Abbas then said: And those to whom your right hands have pledged. is concerned with the covenant of helping and advising each other. So allies are no longer to be the heir of each other; but they can bequeath each other some of their property by means of a will.The Chapter on Oaths And Pledges And Charity in HodHood Indexing, The Book of Prophetic Commentary on the Quran Tafseer of the Prophet in Sahih AlBukhari

SahihMuslim-017-001-18040It is reported by Zuhri that this tradition was narrated to him by Malik Bin Aus who said: Umar Bin AlKhattab sent for me and I came to him when the day had advanced. I found him in his house sitting on his bare bed-stead; reclining on a leather pillow. He said to me : Malik; some people of your tribe have hastened to me with a request for help. I have ordered a little money for them. Take it and distribute it among them. I said: I wish you had ordered somebody else to do this job. He said: Malik; take it and do what you have been told. At this moment his man-servant Yarfa came in and said: Commander of the Faithful; what do you say about Uthman; Abd AlRabman Bin Auf; AlZubair and Saad who have come to seek an audience with you ? He said: Yes; and permitted them. so they entered. Then he Yarfa came again and said: What do you say about Ali and Abbas who are present at the door ? He said: Yes; and permitted them to enter. Abbas said: Commander of the Faithful; decide the dispute between me and this sinful; treacherous; dishonest liar. The people who were present also said: Yes. Commander of the Faithful; do decide the dispute and have mercy on them. Malik Bin Aus said: I could well imagine that they had sent them in advance for this purpose by Ali and Abbas. Umar said: Wait and be patient. I adjure you by Allah by Whose order the heavens and the earth are sustained; dont you know that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: We prophets do not have any heirs; what we leave behind is to be given in charity? They said: Yes. Then he turned to Abbas and Ali and said: I adjure you both by Allah by Whose order the heavens and earth are sustained; dont you know that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: We do not have any heirs; what we leave behind is to be given in charity? They too said: Yes. Then Umar said: Allah; the Glorious and Exalted; had done to His Messenger ﷺ a special favour that He has not done to anyone else except him. He quoted the Quranic verse: What Allah has bestowed upon His Apostle from the properties of the people of township is for Allah and His Messenger. The narrator said: I do not know whether he also recited the previous verse or not. Umar continued: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ distrbuted among you the properties abandoned by Banu Nadir. By Allah; he never preferred himself over you and never appropriated anything to your exclusion. After a fair distribution in this way this property was left over. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ would meet from its income his annual expenditure; and what remained would be deposited in the Bait AlMal. Continuing further he said: I adjure you by Allah by Whose order the heavens and the earth are sustained. Do you know this? They said: Yes. Then he adjured Abbas and All as he had adjured the other persons and asked: Do you both know this? They said: Yes. He said: When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ passed away; Abu Bakr said: I am the successor of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. Both of you came to demand your shares from the property left behind by the Messenger of Allah. Referring to Hadrat Abbas ; he said: You demanded your share from the property of your nephew; and he referring to Ali demanded a share on behalf of his wife from the property of her father. Abu Bakr Allah be pleased with him said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ had said: We do not have any heirs; what we leave behind is to be given in charity. So both of you thought him to be a liar; sinful; treacherous and dishonest. And Allah knows that he was true; virtuous; well-guided and a follower of truth. When Abu Bakr passed away and I have become the successor of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and Abu Bakr Allah be pleased with him ; you thought me to be a liar; sinful; treacherous and dishonest. And Allah knows that I am true; virtuous; well-guided and a follower of truth. I became the guardian of this property. Then you as well as he came to me. Both of you have come and your purpose is identical. You said: Entrust the property to us. I said: If you wish that I should entrust it to you; it will be on the condition that both of you will undertake to abide by a pledge made with Allah that you will use it in the same way as the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used it. So both of you got it. He said: Wasnt it like this? They said: Yes. He said: Then you have again come to me with the request that I should adjudge between you. No; by Allah. I will not give any other judgment except this until the arrival of the Doomsday. If you are unable to hold the property on this condition; return it to me.The Chapter on Contracts And Disputes Management in HodHood Indexing, Chapter on 15 in Sahih Muslim

So The Messenger of Allah S.A.W came to visit me; and I said: O Messenger of Allah S.A.W ! Indeed I have a great deal of wealth and I do not have any heirs except my daughter; so should I will all of my wealth? He said: No. I said: Then two-thirds of my wealth? He said: No. I said: Then half? He said: No. I said: Then a third He said: No. A third and a third is too much. If you leave your heirs without need it is better than to leave them in poverty begging from the people. Indeed you do not do any spending on your family except that you are rewarded for it; even the morsel of food you raise to your wife mouth. He said: I said: Will I be left behind from my emigration? He said: You will not be left behind after me;and do righteous deeds intending Allah Face; except that it will add to your elevation in rank. Perhaps you will remain until some people benefit from you and others will be harmed by you. O Allah! Complete the emigration of my companions and do not turn them on their heels.

SunanAbuDawoud-017-001-25104Amr Bin Shuaib on his father authority said that his grandfather reported: The Prophet ﷺ decided regarding one who was treated as a member of a family after the death of his father; to whom he was attributed when the heirs said he was one of them; that if he was the child of a slave-woman whom the father owned when he had intercourse with her; he was included among those who sought his inclusion; but received none of the inheritance which was previously divided; he; however; received his portion of the inheritance which had not already been divided; but if the father to whom he was attributed had disowned him; he was not joined to the heirs. If he was a child of a slave-woman whom the father did not possess or of a free woman with whom he had illicit intercourse; he was not joined to the heirs and did not inherit even if the one to whom he was attributed is the one who claimed paternity; since he was a child of fornication whether his mother was free or a slave.The Chapter on Freed And Inheritance Of Slaves in HodHood Indexing, Chapter on Claiming An Illegitimate Son in Sunan Abu Dawoud
SunanAbuDawoud-017-001-25781Narrated Abu Dawud: I found in my notebook from Shaiban and I did not hear from him ; Abu Bakr; a reliable friend of ours; said: Shaiban - Muhammad Bin Rashid - Sulaiman Bin Mousad - Amr Bin Suhaib; On his father authority; said that his grandfather said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ would fix the blood-money for accidental killing at the rate of four hundred dinars or their equivalent in silver for townsmen; and he would fix it according to the price of camels. So when they were dear; he increased the amount to be paid; and when cheap prices prevailed he reduced the amount to be paid. In the time of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ they reached between four hundred and eight hundred dinars; their equivalent in silver being eight thousand dirhams. He said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ gave judgment that those who possessed cattle should pay two hundred cows; and those who possessed sheep two thousand sheep. He said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: The blood-money is to be treated as something to be inherited by the heirs of the one who has been killed; and the remainder should be divided among the agnates. He said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ gave judgment that for cutting off a nose completely there was full blood-money; one hundred camels were to be paid. If the tip of the nose was cut off; half of the blood-money;i.e. fifty camels were to be paid; or their equivalent in gold or in silver; or a hundred cows; or one thousand sheep. For the hand; when it was cut of;f half of the blood-money was to be paid; for one foot of half; the blood-money was to be paid. For a wound in the head; a third of the blood-money was due; i.e. thirty-three camels and a third of the blood-money; or their equivalent in gold; silver; cows or sheep. For a head thrust which reaches the body; the same blood-money was to be paid. Ten camels were to be paid for every finger; and five camels for every tooth. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ gave judgment that the blood-money for a woman should be divided among her relatives on her father side; who did not inherit anything from her except the residence of her heirs. If she was killed; her blood-money should be distributed among her heirs; and they would have the right of taking revenge on the murderer. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: There is nothing for the murderer; and if he the victim has no heir; his heir will be the one who is nearest to him among the people; but the murderer should not inherit anything. Muhammad said: All this has been transmitted to me by Sulayman Ibn Mousa on the authority of Amr Ibn Shuaib who; on his father authority; said that his grandfather heard it from the Prophet ﷺ.Abu Dawud said: Muhammad Bin Rashid; an inhabitant of Damascus; fled from Basrah escaping murder.The Chapter on Live Stock Possession in HodHood Indexing, Chapter on Diyah For Lost Limbs in Sunan Abu Dawoud

SunanAbuDawoud-017-001-28926Narrated Abdullah Ibn Abbas: A man died leaving no heir but a slave whom he had emancipated. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ asked: Has he any heir? They replied: No; except a slave whom he had emancipated. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ assigned his estate to him the emancipated slave.The Chapter on Worship Wealth And Charity in HodHood Indexing, Chapter on Regarding The Inheritance For Those Related Due To The Womb in Sunan Abu Dawoud

MuwataMalik-017-001-34744Yahya said that Malik said; The way of doing things in our community about Yahya said that Malik said; The procedure in swearing in manslaughter is that those who claim blood swear and it becomes due by their swearing. They swear fifty oaths; and there is blood-money for them according to the division of their inheritances. If it is not possible to divide up the oaths which they swear between them evenly; one looks to the one who has most of those oaths against him; and that oath is obliged against him. Malik said; If the slain man only has female heirs; they swear and take the blood-money. If he only has one male heir; he swears fifty oaths and takes the blood-money. That is only in the accidental killing; not in the intentional one.The Chapter on Oath And Jews In Crimes And Felonies in HodHood Indexing, The Book of Purity in Muwata Malik
MuwataMalik-017-001-34745Yahya said that Malik said; When the relatives of the deceased accept the blood-money then it is inherited according to the Book of Allah. Daughters of the dead man inherit and so do sisters; and whichever women would inherit from him ordinarily. If the women do not take all his inheritance; then what remains goes to the agnatic relations who most deserve to inherit from him in conjunction with the women. Malik said; When one of the heirs of a man killed by mistake attempts to take his due from the blood-money while his companions are absent; he may not do that; and he has no right to any of the blood-money; however large or small; unless the qasama has been completed by him. If he swears fifty oaths then he has the right to his portion of the blood-money. That is because the blood-money is not established as due without there being fifty oaths; and the blood- money is not established as due unless the responsibility for the blood is established. If any one of the heirs comes after that he swears a number of the oaths commensurate with his fraction of the inheritance and takes his right until all the heirs exact their complete right. If a maternal uncle comes he has one sixth and must swear one sixth of the fifty oaths. So whoever swears may take his due from the blood-money and whoever abstains annuls his right. If one of the heirs is absent or is a child who has not reached puberty; those who are present swear fifty oaths and if the one who was absent comes after that or the child reaches puberty; they swear. and they swear according to their due of the blood-money and according to their shares of inheritance from it. Yahya said that Malik said; This is the best I have heard on the matter.The Chapter on Money And Inheritance In Crimes And Felonies in HodHood Indexing, The Book of Purity in Muwata Malik
MuwataMalik-017-001-34888Malik related to me from Ibn Shihab from Amir Ibn Sad Ibn Abi Waqqas that his father said; The Messenger of Allah; may Allah bless him and grant him peace; came to me to treat me for a pain which became hard to bear in the year of the farewell hajj. I said; Messenger of Allah; you can see how far the pain has reached me. I have property and only my daughter inherits from me. Shall I give two thirds of my property as sadaqa? The Messenger of Allah; may Allah bless him and grant him peace; said; No. I said; Half? He said; No. Then the Messenger of Allah; may Allah bless him and grant him peace; said; A third; and a third is a lot. Leaving your heirs rich is better than leaving them poor to beg from people. You never spend anything on maintenance desiring the Face of Allah by it; but that you are rewarded for it; even what you appoint for your wife. Sad said; Messenger of Allah; will I be left here in Makka after my companions have departed for Madina? The Messenger of Allah; may Allah bless him and grant him peace; said; If you are left behind; and do sound deeds you will increase your degree and elevation by them. Perhaps you will be left behind so that some people may benefit by you and others may be harmed by you. O Allah! complete their hijra for my companions; and do not turn them back on their heels. The unfortunate one is Said Ibn Khawla. The Messenger of Allah; may Allah bless him and grant him peace; was distressed on his account for he had died at Makka. Yahya said that he heard Malik speak about a man who willed a third of his property to a man and said as well; My slave will serve so-and-so another man for as long as he lives; then he is free; then that was looked into; and the slave was found to be a third of the property of the deceased. Malik said; The service of the slave is evaluated. Then the two of them divide it between them. The one who was willed a third takes his third; as a share; and the one who was willed the service of the slave takes what was evaluated for him of the slave service. Each of them takes; from the service of the slave or from his wage if he has a wage; according to his share. If the one who was given the service of the slave for as long as he lived dies; then the slave is freed. Yahya said that he heard Malik speak about someone who willed his third and said So-and-so has such- and-such; and so-and-so has such-and-such; naming some of his property; and his heirs protested that it was more than a third. Malik said; The heirs then have an option between giving the beneficiaries their full bequests and taking the rest of the property of the deceased; or between dividing among the beneficiaries the third of the property of the deceased and surrendering to them their third. If they wish; their rights in it reach as far as they reach.The Chapter on Slave As A Property in HodHood Indexing, The Book of Hair in Muwata Malik
MuwataMalik-017-001-34890Yahya said that he heard Malik say; This ayat is abrogated. It is the word of Allah; the Blessed; the Exalted; If he leaves goods; the testament is for parents and kinsmen. What came down about the division of the fixed shares of inheritance in the Book of Allah; the Mighty; the Exalted; abrogated it. Yahya said that he heard Malik say; The established sunna with us; in which there is no dispute; is that it is not permitted for a testator to make a bequest in addition to the fixed share in favour of an heir; unless the other heirs permit him. If some of them permit him and others refuse; he is allowed to diminish the share of those who have given their permission. Those who refuse take their full share from the inheritance. Yahya said that he heard Malik speak about an invalid who made a bequest and asked his heirs to give him permission to make a bequest when he was so ill that he only had command of a third of his property; and they gave him permission to leave some of his heirs more than his third. Malik said; They cannot revoke that. Had they been permitted to do so; every heir would have done that; and then; when the testator died; they would take that for themselves and prevent him from bequeathing his third and what was permitted to him with respect to his property. Malik said; If he asks permission of his heirs to grant a bequest to an heir while he is well and they give him permission; that is not binding on them. The heirs can rescind that if they wish. That is because when a man is well; he is entitled to all his property and can do what he wishes with it. If he wishes; he can spend all of it. He can spend it and give sadaqa with it or give it to whomever he likes. His asking permission of his heirs is permitted for the heirs; when they give him permission when authority over all his property is closed off from him and nothing outside of the third is permitted to him; and when they are more entitled to the two-thirds of his property than he is himself. That is when their permission becomes relevant. If he asks one of the heirs to give his inheritance to him when he is dying; and the heir agrees and then the dying man does not dispose of it at all; it is returned to the one who gave it unless the deceased said to him; So-and-so - one of his heirs - is weak; and I would like you to give him your inheritance. So he gives it to him. That is permitted when the deceased specified it for him. Malik said; When a man gives the dying man free use of his share of the inheritance; and the dying man distributes some of it and some remains; it is returned to the giver; after the man has died. Yahya said that he heard Malik speak about someone who made a bequest and mentioned that he had given one of his heirs something which he had not taken possession of; so the heirs refused to permit that. Malik said; That gift returns to the heirs as inheritance according to the Book of Allah because the deceased did not mean that to be taken out of the third and the heirs do not have a portion in the third which the dying man is allowed to bequeath.The Chapter on Inheritance And Heirs in HodHood Indexing, The Book of Hair in Muwata Malik
MuwataMalik-017-001-34908Yahya said that Malik spoke about a man who died and had a debt owing to him and there was one witness; and some people had a debt against him and they had only one witness; and his heirs refused to take an oath on their rights with their witness. He said; The creditors take an oath and take their rights. If there is anything left over; the heirs do not take any of it. That is because the oaths were offered to them before and they abandoned them; unless they say; We did not know that our companion had extra; and it is known that they only abandoned the oaths because of that. I think that they should take an oath and take what remains after his debt.The Chapter on Writing Oaths And Pledges in HodHood Indexing, The Book of The Evil Eye in Muwata Malik
MuwataMalik-017-001-34931Yahya said that he heard Malik say; The way of doing things generally agreed upon in our community in the case of a man who dies and has sons and one of them claims; My father confirmed that so-and- so was his son; is that the relationship is not established by the testimony of one man; and the confirmation of the one who confirmed it is only permitted as regards his own share in the division of his father property. The one testified for is only given his due from the share of the testifier. Malik said; An example of this is that a man dies leaving two sons; and 600 dinars. Each of them takes 300 dinars. Then one of them testifies that his deceased father confirmed that so-and-so was his son. The one who testifies is obliged to give 100 dinars to the one thus connected. This is half of the inheritance of the one thought to be related; had he been related. If the other confirms him; he takes the other 100 and so he completes his right and his relationship is established. His position is similar to that of a woman who confirms a debt against her father or her husband and the other heirs deny it. She must pay to the person whose debt she confirms; the amount according to her share of the full debt; had it been confirmed against all the heirs. If the woman inherits an eighth; she pays the creditor an eighth of his debt. If a daughter inherits a half; she pays the creditor half of his debt. Whichever women confirm him; pay him according to this. Malik said; If a man testimony is in agreement with what the woman testified to; that so- and-so had a debt against his father; the creditor is made to take an oath with one witness and he is given all his due. This is not the position with women because a man testimony is allowed and the creditor must take an oath with the testimony of his witness; and take all his due. If he does not take an oath; he only takes from the inheritance of the one who confirmed him according to his share of the debt; because he confirmed his right and the other heirs denied it. It is permitted for him to confirm it.The Chapter on Debt And Creditors And Property Inheritance in HodHood Indexing, The Book of The Description of the Prophet may Allah Bless Him and Grant Him Peace in Muwata Malik
MuwataMalik-017-001-35146Yahya related to me from Malik from Abdu Rabbih Ibn Said that Abu Bakr Ibn Abdulrahman Ibn AlHarith Ibn Hisham only gave a fixed share to two grandmothers together. Malik said; The generally agreed on way of doing things among us in which there is no dispute and which I saw the people of knowledge in our city doing; is that the maternal grandmother does not inherit anything at all with the mother. Outside of that; she is given a sixth as a fixed share. The paternal grandmotherdoes not inherit anything along with the mother or the father. Outside of that she is given a sixth as a fixed share. If both the paternal grandmother and maternal grandmother are alive; and the deceased does not have a father or mother outside of them; Malik said;.I have heard that if the maternal grandmother is the nearest of the two of them; then she has a sixth instead of the paternal grandmother. If the paternal grandmother is nearer; or they are in the same position in relation to the deceased; the sixth is divided equally between them. Malik said; None of the female grand-relations except for these two has any inheritance because I have heard that the Messenger of Allah; may Allah bless him and grant him peace; gave the grandmother inheritance; and then Abu Bakr asked about that until someone reliable related from the Messenger of Allah; may Allah bless him and grant him peace; that he had made the grandmother an heir and given a share to her. Another grandmother came to Umar Ibn AlKhattab; and he said; I am not one to add to fixed shares. If there are two of you together; it is between you. If either of you is left alone with it; it is hers. Malik said; We do not know of anyone who made other than the two grandmothers heirs from the beginning of Islam to this day.The Chapter on Inheritance And Grandmothers in HodHood Indexing, The Book of Hudud in Muwata Malik
MuwataMalik-017-001-35147Yahya related to me from Malik from Zayd Ibn Aslam that Umar Ibn AlKhattab asked the Messenger of Allah; may Allah bless him and grant him peace; about someone who died without parents or offspring; and the Messenger of Allah; may Allah bless him and grant him peace; said to him; The ayat which was sent down in the summer at the end of the Surat AlNisa Surat 4 is enoughfor you. Malik said; The generally agreed on way of doing things among us; in which there is no dispute; and which I saw the people of knowledge in our city doing; is that the person who leaves neither parent or offspring can be of two types. As for the kind described in the ayat which was sent down at the beginning of the Surat AlNisa in which Allah; the Blessed; the Exalted! said; If a man or a woman has no direct heir; but has a brother or a sister by the mother; each of the two has a sixth. If there are more than that; they share equally in a third. Surat 4 ayat 12 This heirless one does not have heirs among his mother siblings since there are no children or parents. As for the other kind described in the ayat which comes at the end of the Surat AlNisa; Allah; the Blessed; the Exalted; said in it; They will ask you for a decision. Say; Allah gives you a decision about the indirect heirs. If a man perishes having no children; but he has a sister; she shall receive a half of what he leaves; and he is her heir if she has no children. If there are two sisters; they shall receive two-thirds of what he leaves. If there are brothers and sisters; the male shall receive the portion of two females. Allah makes clear to you that you might not go astray. Allah has knowledge of everything Surat 4 ayat 176. Malik said; If this person without direct heirs parents or children has siblings by the father; they inherit with the grandfather from the person without direct heirs. The grandfather inherits with the siblings because he is more entitled to the inheritance than them. That is because he inherits a sixth with the male children of the deceased when the siblings do not inherit anything with the male children of the deceased. How can he not be like one of them when he takes a sixth with the children of the deceased? How can he not take a third with the siblings while the brother sons take a third with them? The grandfather is the one who overshadows the half-siblings by the mother and keeps them from inheriting. He is more entitled to what they have because they are omitted for his sake. If the grandfather did not take that third; the half-siblings by the mother would take it and would take what does not return to the half-siblings by the father. The half-siblings by the mother are more entitled to that third than the half-siblings by the father while the grandfather is more entitled to that than the half- siblings by the mother.The Chapter on Inheritance And Male Childs in HodHood Indexing, The Book of Hudud in Muwata Malik
MuwataMalik-017-001-35157Yahya related to me from Malik from Rabia Ibn Abi Abdulrahman from more than one of the people of knowledge of that time; that those who were killed on the Day of the Camel; the Day of Siffin; the Day of AlHarra; and the Day of Qudayd did not inherit from each other. None of them inherited anything from his companion unless it was known that he had been killed before his companion. Malik said; That is the way of doing things about which there is no dispute; and which none of the people of knowledge in our city doubt. The procedure with two mutual heirs who are drowned; or killed in another way; when it is not known which of them died first is the same - neither of them inherits anything from his companion. Their inheritance goes to whoever remains of their heirs. They are inherited from by the living. Malik said; No one should inherit from anyone else when there is doubt; and one should only inherit from the other when there is certainty of knowledge and witnesses. That is because a man and his mawla whom his father has freed might die at the same time. The sons of the free man could say; Our father inherited from the mawla. They should not inherit from the mawla without knowledge or testimony that he died first. The living people most entitled to his wala inherit from him. Malik said; Another example is two full brothers who die. One of them has children and the other does not. They have a half-brother by their father. It is not known which of them died first; so the inheritance of the childless one goes to his half-brother by the father. The children of the full-brother get nothing. Malik said; Another example is when a paternal aunt and the son of her brother die; or else the daughter of the brother and her paternal uncle. It is not known which of them died first. The paternal uncle does not inherit anything from the daughter of his brother; and the son of the brother does not inherit anything from his paternal aunt.The Chapter on Inheritance And Half Brothers in HodHood Indexing, The Book of Hudud in Muwata Malik
