"عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ إبْرَاهِيمَ أَنَّ أَبَا مُوسَى كَتَبَ إِلى عُمَرَ: إِنَّ الرَّجُلَ يَمُوتُ قِبَلَنَا وَلَيْسَ لَهُ رَحِمٌ وَلا وَلِىٌّ، فَكَتَبَ إِليْهِ عُمَرُ: إِنْ تَرَكَ ذَا رَحِمٍ فَالرَّحِمُ، وَإِلا فَالْوَلاءُ، وَإلا فَبَيْتُ الْمَالِ، يَرِثُونَهُ وَيَعْقِلُونَ عَنْهُ".

"On the authority of Sa'd ibn Ibrahim, that Abu Musa wrote to 'Umar: Indeed a man dies among us and has no relative or guardian. So 'Umar wrote to him: If he leaves a relative, then (his estate goes to) the relative; otherwise, then to the patron (wala'); otherwise, then to the public treasury (bayt al-mal). They inherit from him and pay his blood money on his behalf."
