darimi:2936Muḥammad b. Yūsuf > Sufyān > Abū Sahl > al-Shaʿbī

[Machine] Ibn Mas'ud used to say about a daughter, the daughters of a son, and the sons of a son, "If the division between them is less than one sixth, he gave them one sixth, and if it is more than one sixth, he gave them one sixth."  

الدارمي:٢٩٣٦أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ أَبِي سَهْلٍ عَنْ الشَّعْبِيِّ

أَنَّ ابْنَ مَسْعُودٍ كَانَ يَقُولُ فِي بِنْتٍ وَبَنَاتِ ابْنٍ وَابْنِ ابْنٍ «إِنْ كَانَتِ الْمُقَاسَمَةُ بَيْنَهُمْ أَقَلَّ مِنَ السُّدُسِ أَعْطَاهُمُ السُّدُسَ وَإِنْ كَانَ أَكْثَرَ مِنَ السُّدُسِ أَعْطَاهُمُ السُّدُسَ»
