[Machine] What do you see in a man who bequeathed one-third of his wealth to one man, one-fourth of his wealth to another, and one-half of his wealth to another? So, I did not know, and I said, "That is not permissible. It is only permissible for him to bequeath one-third of his wealth." He said, "But the heirs allowed it." I said, "I don't know." He said, "Shall I teach you?" I said, "Yes." He said, "Look, he has half, one-third, and one-fourth of the wealth." I said, "So, that is twelve." He said, "Yes, indeed. So, you take six for half, four for one-third, and three for one-fourth. That would be thirteen shares. The wealth is divided into thirteen shares, and the owner of half gets what six shares gained, the owner of one-third gets what four shares gained, and the owner of one-fourth gets what three shares gained. That is how it is." I said, "Yes."  

مَا تَرَى فِي رَجُلٍ أَوْصَى بِثُلُثِ مَالِهِ لِرَجُلٍ وَرُبْعَ مَالِهِ لِآخَرَ وَنِصْفَ مَالِهِ لِآخَرَ؟ فَلَمْ أَدْرِ فَقُلْتُ إِنَّ ذَاكَ لَا يَجُوزُ إِنَّمَا يَجُوزُ لَهُ مِنْ مَالِهِ الثُّلُثُ قَالَ فَإِنَّ الْوَرَثَةَ أَجَازُوهُ قُلْتُ لَا أَدْرِي قَالَ فَأُعَلِّمُكَ؟ قُلْتُ نَعَمْ قَالَ انْظُرْ مَالًا لَهُ نِصْفٌ وَثُلُثٌ وَرُبُعٌ قُلْتُ فَذَا اثْنَا عَشَرَ قَالَ فَنَعَمْ فَتَأْخُذُ نِصْفَهُ سِتَّةً وَثُلُثَهُ أَرْبَعَةً وَرُبُعَهُ ثَلَاثَةً فَيَكُونُ ثَلَاثَةَ عَشَرَ سَهْمًا فَيُقْسَمُ الْمَالُ عَلَى ثَلَاثَةَ عَشَرَ سَهْمًا فَيُعْطَى صَاحِبُ النِّصْفِ مَا أَصَابَ سِتَّةً وَصَاحِبُ الثُّلُثِ مَا أَصَابَ أَرْبَعَةً وَصَاحِبُ الرُّبْعِ مَا أَصَابَ ثَلَاثَةً فَذَاكَ كَذَاكَ قُلْتُ نَعَمْ
