Shares of Inheritance (Kitab Al-Fara'id)

Sahih (authentic)by Al-Albani

حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ حَنْبَلٍ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ ابْنَ الْمُنْكَدِرِ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ جَابِرًا، يَقُولُ مَرِضْتُ فَأَتَانِي النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَعُودُنِي هُوَ وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ مَاشِيَيْنِ وَقَدْ أُغْمِيَ عَلَىَّ فَلَمْ أُكَلِّمْهُ فَتَوَضَّأَ وَصَبَّهُ عَلَىَّ فَأَفَقْتُ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ كَيْفَ أَصْنَعُ فِي مَالِي وَلِي أَخَوَاتٌ قَالَ فَنَزَلَتْ آيَةُ الْمَوَارِيثِ ‏{‏ يَسْتَفْتُونَكَ قُلِ اللَّهُ يُفْتِيكُمْ فِي الْكَلاَلَةِ ‏}‏ ‏.‏

Narrated Jabir:I fell ill, and the Prophet (ﷺ) and Abu Bakr came to me on foot to visit me. As I was unconscious, I could not speak to him. He performed ablution and sprinkled water on me ; so I became conscious. I said: Messenger of Allah, how should I do in my property, as I have sisters? Thereafter the verse about inheritance was revealed: "They ask thee for legal decision. Say: Allah directs (thus) about those who leave no descendants or ascendants as heirs

Rapporté par Jabir رضي الله عنه : Je suis tombé malade, et le Prophète ﷺ et Abu Bakr sont venus me rendre visite à pied. Comme j’étais inconscient, je ne pouvais pas lui parler. Il a fait ses ablutions et a aspergé de l’eau sur moi ; alors j’ai repris connaissance. J’ai dit : « Messager d’Allah, que dois-je faire de mes biens, car j’ai des sœurs ? » Ensuite, le verset sur l’héritage a été révélé : « Ils te demandent un avis juridique. Dis : Allah vous donne un avis concernant ceux qui n’ont ni descendants ni ascendants comme héritiers. »
