10. It is narrated from the narrator of the previous Hadith and Ali ibn ‘Abd Allah all from Ibrahim from ‘Abd Allah ibn Ja‘far who has narrated the following: “I once wrote to abu Muhammad, ‘Alayhi al-Salam, and asked that a woman has died leaving behind her husband, her parents or her grandfather or her grandmother; how is the legacy distributed? He (the Imam), ‘Alayhi al-Salam, signed the answer that said, ‘The share of the husband is one-half and the rest belongs to the parents. It is also narrated that the Messenger of Allah, provided for the grandfather and grandmother one-sixth.’”
