حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ سُوَيْدٍ عَنْ الْعَلَاءِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ
أَنَّ رَجُلًا سَأَلَ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ فَقَالَ إِنَّ وَارِثِي كَلَالَةٌ أفَأُوصِي بِالنِّصْفِ؟ قَالَ «لَا» قَالَ فَالثُّلُثِ؟ قَالَ «لَا» قَالَ فَالرُّبُعِ؟ قَالَ «لَا» قَالَ فَالْخُمُسِ؟ قَالَ «لَا» حَتَّى صَارَ إِلَى الْعُشْرِ فَقَالَ «أَوْصِ بِالْعُشْرِ»

✧ That a man asked Umar b. al-Khattab, saying, “My heirs are only distant relatives (kalalah), so should I bequeath half?” He said, “No.” He said, “Then a third?” He said, “No.” He said, “Then a quarter?” He said, “No.” He said, “Then a fifth?” He said, “No.” Until he reached a tenth, then he said, “Bequeath a tenth.”
