It is narrated from Mujahid that once Umm Salamah submitted in the court of the Prophet, "O Messenger of Allah, men participate in jihad but we cannot participate in it, and then we also receive only half the inheritance?" Upon this, Allah the Exalted revealed this verse: "Do not wish for that by which Allah has made some of you excel others."
