أَخْبَرَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ أَنْبَأَنَا الْأَشْعَثُ عَنْ الزُّهْرِيِّ قَالَ

جَاءَتْ إِلَى أَبِي بَكْرٍ جَدَّةٌ أُمُّ أَبٍ أَوْ أُمُّ أُمٍّ فَقَالَتْ إِنَّ ابْنَ ابْنِي أَوِ ابْنَ ابْنَتِي تُوُفِّيَ وَبَلَغَنِي أَنَّ لِي نَصِيبًا فَمَا لِي؟ فَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ مَا سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ فِيهَا شَيْئًا وَسَأَسْأَلُ النَّاسَ فَلَمَّا صَلَّى الظُّهْرَ فقَالَ أَيُّكُمْ سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ فِي الْجَدَّةِ شَيْئًا؟ فَقَالَ الْمُغِيرَةُ بْنُ شُعْبَةَ أَنَا قَالَ مَاذَا؟ قَالَ «أَعْطَاهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ سُدُسًا» قَالَ أَيَعْلَمُ ذَاكَ أَحَدٌ غَيْرُكَ؟ فَقَالَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مَسْلَمَةَ صَدَقَ فَأَعْطَاهَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ السُّدُسَ فَجَاءَتْ إِلَى عُمَرَ مِثْلُهَا فَقَالَ مَا أَدْرِي مَا سَمِعْتُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فِيهَا شَيْئًا وَسَأَسْأَلُ النَّاسَ فَحَدَّثُوهُ بِحَدِيثِ الْمُغِيرَةِ بْنِ شُعْبَةَ وَمُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مَسْلَمَةَ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ «أَيُّكُمَا خَلَتْ بِهِ فَلَهَا السُّدُسُ فَإِنِ اجْتَمَعْتُمَا فَهُوَ بَيْنَكُمَا»

✧ A grandmother, the mother of a father or the mother of a mother, came to Abu Bakr and said, “The son of my son, or the son of my daughter, has died, and I have heard that I have a share. So what is for me?” Abu Bakr said, “I have not heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say anything about her, and I will ask the people.” When he prayed Zuhr, he said, “Which of you heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say anything about the grandmother?” Al-Mughirah b. Shu'bah said, “I did.” He said, “What?” He said, “The Messenger of Allah ﷺ gave her a sixth.” He said, “Does anyone other than you know that?” Muhammad b. Maslamah said, “He has spoken the truth.” So Abu Bakr gave her the sixth. Then a similar case came to Umar, and he said, “I do not know; I have not heard anything from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ about her, and I will ask the people.” They told him the hadith of al-Mughirah b. Shu'bah and Muhammad b. Maslamah. Umar said, “Whichever of you two she is alone with, she gets the sixth; but if you both come together, it is between you.”
