قُلْتُ لِزُرَارَةَ إِنَّ أُنَاساً حَدَّثُونِي عَنْهُ يَعْنِي أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) وَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ ( عليه السلام ) بِأَشْيَاءَ فِي الْفَرَائِضِ فَأَعْرِضُهَا عَلَيْكَ فَمَا كَانَ مِنْهَا بَاطِلًا فَقُلْ هَذَا بَاطِلٌ وَ مَا كَانَ مِنْهَا حَقّاً فَقُلْ هَذَا حَقٌّ وَ لَا تَرْوِهِ وَ اسْكُتْ وَ قُلْتُ لَهُ حَدَّثَنِي رَجُلٌ عَنْ أَحَدِهِمَا ( عليهما السلام ) فِي أَبَوَيْنِ وَ إِخْوَةٍ لِأُمٍّ أَنَّهُمْ يَحْجُبُونَ وَ لَا يَرِثُونَ فَقَالَ هَذَا وَ اللَّهِ هُوَ الْبَاطِلُ وَ لَكِنِّي سَأُخْبِرُكَ وَ لَا أَرْوِي لَكَ شَيْئاً وَ الَّذِي أَقُولُ لَكَ هُوَ وَ اللَّهِ الْحَقُّ إِنَّ الرَّجُلَ إِذَا تَرَكَ أَبَوَيْهِ فَلِلْأُمِّ الثُّلُثُ وَ لِلْأَبِ الثُّلُثَانِ فِي كِتَابِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ فَإِنْ كَانَ لَهُ إِخْوَةٌ يَعْنِي لِلْمَيِّتِ يَعْنِي إِخْوَةً لِأَبٍ وَ أُمٍّ أَوْ إِخْوَةً لِأَبٍ فَلِأُمِّهِ السُّدُسُ وَ لِلْأَبِ خَمْسَةُ أَسْدَاسٍ وَ إِنَّمَا وُفِّرَ لِلْأَبِ مِنْ أَجْلِ عِيَالِهِ وَ أَمَّا الْإِخْوَةُ لِأُمٍّ لَيْسُوا لِأَبٍ فَإِنَّهُمْ لَا يَحْجُبُونَ الْأُمَّ عَنِ الثُّلُثِ وَ لَا يَرِثُونَ وَ إِنْ مَاتَ رَجُلٌ وَ تَرَكَ أُمَّهُ وَ إِخْوَةً وَ أَخَوَاتٍ لِأُمٍّ وَ أَبٍ وَ إِخْوَةً وَ أَخَوَاتٍ لِأَبٍ وَ إِخْوَةً وَ أَخَوَاتٍ لِأُمٍّ وَ لَيْسَ الْأَبُ حَيّاً فَإِنَّهُمْ لَا يَرِثُونَ وَ لَا يَحْجُبُونَهَا لِأَنَّهُ لَمْ يُورَثْ كَلَالَةً .
Translation
Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Ibn Abu Umeyr and Muhammad Bin Isa, from Yunus, altogether from Umar Bin Azina who said, ‘I said to Zurara that people are narrating to me from him<sup>asws</sup>, meaning Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup>, and from his<sup>asws</sup> father<sup>asws</sup>, with things regarding the Obligations (legislated shares of inheritance), so I will present these to you. So whatever was false from it, so say that this is false, and whatever was true from these, so say that this is true, and do not report it and remain silent’. And I said to him, ‘A man narrated to me from one of the two (5<sup>th</sup> or 6<sup>th</sup> Imam<sup>asws</sup>) regarding two parents and brothers of the (side of the) mother, and that they are blocked (barred) and will not be inheriting’. So he said, ‘This, by Allah<sup>azwj</sup>, it is false, but I shall be informing you and I will not be reporting to you anything, and that which I am saying to you, other than, by Allah<sup>azwj</sup>, what is the truth. If a (deceased) man, leaves behind two parents, so for the mother is the one-third and for the father is the two-thirds in the Book of Allah<sup>azwj</sup> Mighty and Majestic. So if there were brothers for him, meaning for the deceased, (and the) brothers of the father, and the mother, or a sister of the father. So for his mother is the one-sixth, and for the father is the five-sixth. But rather it is for the father due to his dependents. And as for the brother of the (side of the) mother, not of the father, so they do not block from the mother of her the one-third, nor are they inheriting (anything). And if the man dies and leaves his mother, and brothers and sisters of the mother and father, and brothers and sisters of the father, and brothers and sisters of the mother, and the father is not alive, so they would not be inheriting, nor would they be barring it, because a ‘<span class="iTxt">Kalala</span>’ (a person who has neither parents nor offspring – 4:176) does not inherit’.
