85. Laws of Inheritance
٨٥۔ كتاب الفرائض
Muʿadh bin Jabal gave this verdict for us in the lifetime of Messenger of Allah ﷺ. One-half of the inheritance is to be given to the daughter and the other half to the sister. Sulaiman said: Muʿadh gave a verdict for us, but he did not mention that it was so in the lifetime of Messenger of Allah ﷺ.
قَضَى فِينَا مُعَاذُ بْنُ جَبَلٍ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ النِّصْفُ لِلاِبْنَةِ وَالنِّصْفُ لِلأُخْتِ ثُمَّ قَالَ سُلَيْمَانُ قَضَى فِينَا وَلَمْ يَذْكُرْ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ
ʿAbdullah said, "The judgment I will give in this matter will be like the judgment of the Prophet, i.e. one-half is for the daughter and one-sixth for the son's daughter and the rest of the inheritance for the sister."
عَبْدُ اللَّهِ لأَقْضِيَنَّ فِيهَا بِقَضَاءِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ لِلاِبْنَةِ النِّصْفُ وَلاِبْنَةِ الاِبْنِ السُّدُسُ وَمَا بَقِيَ فَلِلأُخْتِ
