1. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr and Muhammad ibn ‘Isa ibn ‘Ubayd from Yunus ibn ‘Abd al- Rahman all from Safwan or he said from ‘Umar ibn ’Udhaynah from Muhammad ibn Muslim who has narrated the following: “Once abu Ja‘far (a.s.), made me read the page of the book of ordained shares. It was according to the dictation of the Messenger of Allah, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, and with the handwriting of Ali (a.s.). I found in it this, ’If a deceased leaves behind his daughter and mother, the share of the daughter is one- half or three shares and for the mother one-sixth. The legacy is made in four parts, of which three are for the daughter and one is for the mother/” “He (the narrator) has said, I read in it that, “If a deceased leaves behind his daughter and his father, the share of the daughter is one-half: three shares and the share of the father is one-sixth share. The legacy is made in four parts of which three are for the daughter and one is for the father.’” “Muhammad has said, T found in it that if a deceased leaves behind both parents and his daughter; the share of the daughter is one-half, three shares and the shares of parents are one-sixth for each. Such legacy can be made of five portions of which three are for the daughter and two for the parents.’”
