bayhaqi:12218Abū Saʿīd b. Abū ʿAmr > Abū Muḥammad al-Yazanī > ʿAlī b. Muḥammad b. ʿĪsá > Abū al-Yamān > Shuʿayb > al-Zuhrī

[Machine] Then Ibn Dhadhah did not stay there long until the polytheists of Quraysh came on the day of Uhud, so he went out with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and fought them and was martyred. Al-Shafi'i said: The Ayah of inheritance was revealed concerning what our companions have confirmed regarding the daughters of Mahmud ibn Muslimah, and it was revealed on the day of Khaybar. It was said that it was revealed after Uhud regarding the daughters of Sa'd ibn al-Rabi'. And all of this was after the command of Thabit ibn Dhadhahah. The Shaykh [Al-Shafi'i] mentioned in what we mentioned from the hadith of Jabir bin Abdullah and his saying to the Prophet ﷺ : "Indeed, my uncles will inherit me, so how will the inheritance be?" So the Ayah of inheritance descended as evidence that it was revealed after Uhud. For indeed, before Uhud, his father was alive, and indeed he was martyred on the day of Uhud, leaving behind Jabir and his daughters. When Jabir became ill, he had sisters, but he did not have a father or children. So he said, "Indeed, my uncles will inherit me." So the Ayah of inheritance was revealed. It has also been said that the Ayah of inheritance was revealed in the one that is at the end of Surah An-Nisa, and the one that is at the beginning of it was revealed concerning the daughters of Sa'd ibn al-Rabi', as Al-Shafi'i said, may Allah have mercy on him.
