A man of Khuza'ah died and his estate was brought to the Prophet ﷺ. He said: Look for his heir or some relative. But they found neither heir nor relative. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Give it to the leading man of Khuza'ah. The narrator Yahya said: Sometimes I heard him (al-Husayn ibn Aswad) say in this tradition: Look for the greatest man of Khuza'ah.  

أبو داود:٢٩٠٤حَدَّثَنَا الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ أَسْوَدَ الْعِجْلِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ آدَمَ حَدَّثَنَا شَرِيكٌ عَنْ جِبْرِيلَ بْنِ أَحْمَرَ أَبِي بَكْرٍ عَنِ ابْنِ بُرَيْدَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ

مَاتَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ خُزَاعَةَ فَأُتِيَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ بِمِيرَاثِهِ فَقَالَ الْتَمِسُوا لَهُ وَارِثًا أَوْ ذَا رَحِمٍ فَلَمْ يَجِدُوا لَهُ وَارِثًا وَلاَ ذَا رَحِمٍ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَعْطُوهُ الْكُبْرَ مِنْ خُزَاعَةَ قَالَ يَحْيَى قَدْ سَمِعْتُهُ مَرَّةً يَقُولُ فِي هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ انْظُرُوا أَكْبَرَ رَجُلٍ مِنْ خُزَاعَةَ
