-: لِمُحَمَّدِ بْنِ اَلنُّعْمَانِ اَلْأَحْوَلِ مَا بَالُ اَلْمَرْأَةِ اَلضَّعِيفَةِ لَهَا سَهْمٌ وَاحِدٌ وَ لِلرَّجُلِ اَلْقَوِيِّ اَلْمُوسِرِ سَهْمَانِ قَالَ فَذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ فَقَالَ "إِنَّ اَلْمَرْأَةَ لَيْسَ لَهَا عَاقِلَةٌ وَ لاَ عَلَيْهَا نَفَقَةٌ وَ لاَ جِهَادٌ" وَ عَدَّدَ أَشْيَاءَ غَيْرَ هَذَا "وَ هَذَا عَلَى اَلرَّجُلِ فَلِذَلِكَ جُعِلَ لَهُ سَهْمَانِ وَ لَهَا سَهْمٌ".

Hadith.5757 - Ibn Abi Umayr narrated from Hisham that Ibn Abi Al-Awjaʾ said to Muhammad ibn Al-Nuʿman Al-Ahwal: "Why does the weak woman have one share while the strong and wealthy man has two shares?" He said: "I mentioned this to Abu Abdullah (as), and Imam (as) said: 'A woman has no obligation to pay blood money (Aqilah), nor is she responsible for financial maintenance, nor is she required to participate in jihad.'" Imam (as) then listed other responsibilities beyond these and continued; "These obligations are upon the man. Therefore, he was given two shares, and she was given one."
