حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَمْرِو بْنِ السَّرْحِ الْمِصْرِيُّ أَنْبَأَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ وَهْبٍ أَنْبَأَنَا يُونُسُ عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ حَدَّثَهُ عَنْ قَبِيصَةَ بْنِ ذُؤَيْبٍ ح وَحَدَّثَنَا سُوَيْدُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكُ بْنُ أَنَسٍ عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ عَنْ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ خَرَشَةَ عَنِ ابْنِ ذُؤَيْبٍ قَالَ

جَاءَتِ الْجَدَّةُ إِلَى أَبِي بَكْرٍ الصِّدِّيقِ تَسْأَلُهُ مِيرَاثَهَا فَقَالَ لَهَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ مَا لَكِ فِي كِتَابِ اللَّهِ شَىْءٌ وَمَا عَلِمْتُ لَكِ فِي سُنَّةِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ شَيْئًا فَارْجِعِي حَتَّى أَسْأَلَ النَّاسَ فَسَأَلَ النَّاسَ فَقَالَ الْمُغِيرَةُ بْنُ شُعْبَةَ حَضَرْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَعْطَاهَا السُّدُسَ فَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ هَلْ مَعَكَ غَيْرُكَ فَقَامَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مَسْلَمَةَ الأَنْصَارِيُّ فَقَالَ مِثْلَ مَا قَالَ الْمُغِيرَةُ بْنُ شُعْبَةَ فَأَنْفَذَهُ لَهَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ ثُمَّ جَاءَتِ الْجَدَّةُ الأُخْرَى مِنْ قِبَلِ الأَبِ إِلَى عُمَرَ تَسْأَلُهُ مِيرَاثَهَا فَقَالَ مَا لَكِ فِي كِتَابِ اللَّهِ شَىْءٌ وَمَا كَانَ الْقَضَاءُ الَّذِي قُضِيَ بِهِ إِلاَّ لِغَيْرِكِ وَمَا أَنَا بِزَائِدٍ فِي الْفَرَائِضِ شَيْئًا وَلَكِنْ هُوَ ذَاكِ السُّدُسُ فَإِنِ اجْتَمَعْتُمَا فِيهِ فَهُوَ بَيْنَكُمَا وَأَيَّتُكُمَا خَلَتْ بِهِ فَهُوَ لَهَا

“A grandmother came to Abu Bakr Siddiq and asked him for her inheritance. Abu Bakr said to her: ‘You have nothing according to the Book of Allah, and I don’t know of anything for you according to the Book of Allah, and I don’t know of anything for you according to the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. Go back until I ask the people.’ So he asked the people and Al-Mughirah bin Shu’bah said: ‘I was present with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and he gave her (the grandmother) one sixth.’ Abu Bakr said: ‘Is there anyone else with you (who will corroborate what you say)?’ Muhammad bin Maslamah Al-Ansari stood up and said something like what Mughirah bin Shu’bah had said. So Abu Bakr applied it in her case.”

What scholars said about it

In their own words, as Hadith Unlocked records them. They are shown, not summarised into a grade.

  • Ibn Ḥazm

    لا يصح حديث قبيصة منقطع لإنه لم يدرك أبا بكر ولا سمعه من المغيرة ولا محمد

    machine translationThe hadith of Qabīṣah is not authentic (ṣaḥīḥ); it is broken in its chain (munqaṭiʿ), because he did not meet Abū Bakr, nor did he hear it from al-Mughīrah or Muḥammad.

    in سنن ابن ماجه, p. 2817
  • Ibn Ḥajar al-ʿAsqalānī

    إسناده صحيح لثقة رجاله إلا أن صورته مرسل

    machine translationIts chain is authentic (ṣaḥīḥ), because its narrators are trustworthy (thiqah), except that its form is mursal.

    in سنن ابن ماجه, p. 2817
  • Ibn ʿAbd al-Barr

    حديث مرسل عند بعض أهل العلم لأنه لم يذكر فيه سماع لقبيصة من أبي بكر ولا شهود لتلك القصة

    machine translationIt is a mursal hadith according to some of the people of knowledge, because no hearing by Qabīṣah from Abū Bakr is mentioned in it, nor his presence at that incident.
