Narrated Ibn 'Abbas

Referring to the verse: "Those who believed and adopted exile...

Chapter 18: Regarding A Woman Inheriting From The Blood Money Of Her Husband

Sunan Abi Dawud 2927
Narrated Umar ibn al-Khattab

Sa'id said: Umar ibn al-Khattab said: Blood-money is meant for the clan of the slain, and she will not inherit from the blood-money of her husband. Ad-Dahhak ibn Sufyan said: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) wrote to me that I should give a share to the wife of Ashyam ad-Dubabi from the blood-money of her husband. So Umar withdrew his opinion.

Ahmad ibn Salih said: AbdurRazzaq transmitted this tradition to us from Ma'mar, from az-Zuhri on the authority of Sa'id. In this version he said: The Prophet (ﷺ) made him governor over the bedouins.
