Sahih al-Bukhari 2747
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ، عَنْ وَرْقَاءَ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي نَجِيحٍ، عَنْ عَطَاءٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ـ رضى الله عنهما ـ قَالَ كَانَ الْمَالُ لِلْوَلَدِ، وَكَانَتِ الْوَصِيَّةُ لِلْوَالِدَيْنِ، فَنَسَخَ اللَّهُ مِنْ ذَلِكَ مَا أَحَبَّ، فَجَعَلَ لِلذَّكَرِ مِثْلَ حَظِّ الأُنْثَيَيْنِ، وَجَعَلَ لِلأَبَوَيْنِ لِكُلِّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمَا السُّدُسَ، وَجَعَلَ لِلْمَرْأَةِ الثُّمُنَ وَالرُّبْعَ، وَلِلزَّوْجِ الشَّطْرَ وَالرُّبُعَ.
Muhammad ibn Yusuf narrated to us, from Warqaʾ, from Ibn Abi Najih, from ʿAtaʾ, from Ibn ʿAbbas (may Allah be pleased with them both), who said: In the past, property went to children, while a bequest was made for parents. Allah abrogated what He wished of that practice: He assigned the male the share of two females; each parent one sixth; the wife one eighth or one fourth; and the husband one half or one fourth.
