Sunan an-Nasa'i 3355

Ahmad ibn Sulayman reported to us; he said: Yazid narrated to us; he said: Sufyan narrated to us, from Mansur, from Ibrahim, from Alqamah, from Abd Allah: A case was brought to him concerning a woman whom a man had married and then died, without specifying a dower for her and without consummating the marriage. They disputed the matter before him for nearly a month, and he gave them no ruling. Then he said, ‘I think she is entitled to a dower equal to that of women like her, neither less nor excessive; she is entitled to inheritance, and she must observe the waiting period.’ Ma'qil ibn Sinan al-Ashja'i testified that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) ruled concerning Barwa' bint Washiq exactly as you have ruled.
