حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ، عَنْ عُمَارَةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ، قَالَ: كُنْتُ مُسْتَتِرًا بِأَسْتَارِ الْكَعْبَةِ، قَالَ: فَجَاءَ ثَلَاثَةُ نَفَرٍ، كَثِيرٌ شَحْمُ (٢) بُطُونِهِمْ، قَلِيلٌ فِقْهُ قُلُوبِهِمْ، قُرَشِيٌّ وَخَتَنَاهُ ثَقَفِيَّانِ، أَوْ ثَقَفِيٌّ وَخَتَنَاهُ قُرَشِيَّانِ، فَتَكَلَّمُوا بِكَلَامٍ لَمْ أَفْهَمْهُ، فَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ: أَتَرَوْنَ أَنَّ اللهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ يَسْمَعُ كَلَامَنَا هَذَا؟ فَقَالَ الْآخَرُ: أُرَانَا (٣) إِذَا رَفَعْنَا أَصْوَاتَنَا سَمِعَهُ، وَإِذَا لَمْ نَرْفَعْ أَصْوَاتَنَا لَمْ يَسْمَعْهُ،، ، قَالَ: وَقَالَ الْآخَرُ: إِنْ سَمِعَ مِنْهُ شَيْئًا، سَمِعَهُ كُلَّهُ، قَالَ: فَذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لِلنَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ: " فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ: {وَمَا كُنْتُمْ تَسْتَتِرُونَ أَنْ يَشْهَدَ عَلَيْكُمْ سَمْعُكُمْ وَلَا أَبْصَارُكُمْ} [فصلت: ٢٢]- إِلَى قَوْلِهِ - {وَذَلِكُمْ ظَنُّكُمُ الَّذِي ظَنَنْتُمْ بِرَبِّكُمْ أَرْدَاكُمْ فَأَصْبَحْتُمْ مِنَ الْخَاسِرِينَ} [فصلت: ٢٣] " (١)،
Translation
English translation
It was narrated from Huzail bin Shurahbeel that
al-Ash’ari was asked about a daughter, a son's daughter, a sister through the father and mother (full sister) (i.e., a case of inheritance). He allocated half to the daughter and the rest to the sister, and he did not allocate anything to the son's daughter. They went to Ibn Mas'ood and told him (about that) and he said: I would go astray, and I would not be one of the rightly guided (cf. 6:45) if I accepted his verdict and ignored the verdict of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ). Then Ibn Mas'ood said: The daughter gets one half, the son's daughter gets one sixth and what is left goes to the sister.
