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 إِسْحَاق بْنِ خَرَشَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ قَبِيصَةَ بْنِ ذُؤَيْبٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ جَاءَتِ الْجَدَّةُ إِلَى أَبِي بَكْرٍ الصِّدِّيقِ تَسْأَلُهُ مِيرَاثَهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ لَهَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ:‏‏‏‏ مَا لَكِ فِي كِتَابِ اللَّهِ شَيْءٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَمَا عَلِمْتُ لَكِ فِي سُنَّةِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ شَيْئًا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَارْجِعِي حَتَّى أَسْأَلَ النَّاسَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَسَأَلَ النَّاسَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ الْمُغِيرَةُ بْنُ شُعْبَةَ:‏‏‏‏ حَضَرْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَعْطَاهَا السُّدُسَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ:‏‏‏‏ هَلْ مَعَكَ غَيْرُكَ؟ فَقَامَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مَسْلَمَةَ الْأَنْصَارِيُّ فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ مِثْلَ مَا قَالَ الْمُغِيرَةُ بْنُ شُعْبَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَأَنْفَذَهُ لَهَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ. (حديث موقوف) (حديث موقوف) ثُمَّ جَاءَتِ الْجَدَّةُ الْأُخْرَى مِنْ قِبَلِ الْأَبِ إِلَى عُمَرَ تَسْأَلُهُ مِيرَاثَهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ مَا لَكِ فِي كِتَابِ اللَّهِ شَيْءٌ وَمَا كَانَ الْقَضَاءُ الَّذِي قُضِيَ بِهِ إِلَّا 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 رضی اللہ عنہ 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 رضی اللہ عنہ 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 رضی اللہ عنہ applied it in her case.”
