سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) عَنْ رَجُلٍ لَاعَنَ امْرَأَتَهُ وَ انْتَفَى مِنْ وَلَدِهَا ثُمَّ أَكْذَبَ نَفْسَهُ بَعْدَ الْمُلَاعَنَةِ وَ زَعَمَ أَنَّ وَلَدَهَا وَلَدُهُ هَلْ تُرَدُّ عَلَيْهِ قَالَ لَا وَ لَا كَرَامَةَ لَا تُرَدُّ عَلَيْهِ وَ لَا تَحِلُّ لَهُ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ قَالَ وَ سَأَلْتُهُ مَنْ يَرِثُ الْوَلَدَ قَالَ أُمُّهُ فَقُلْتُ أَ رَأَيْتَ إِنْ مَاتَتِ الْأُمُّ فَوَرِثَهَا الْغُلَامُ ثُمَّ مَاتَ الْغُلَامُ بَعْدُ مَنْ يَرِثُهُ قَالَ أَخْوَالُهُ فَقُلْتُ إِذَا أَقَرَّ بِهِ الْأَبُ هَلْ يَرِثُ الْأَبُ قَالَ نَعَمْ وَ لَا يَرِثُ الْأَبُ [مِنَ] الِابْنِ .
Translation
A number of our companions, from Sahl Bin Ziyad, from Abdul Rahman Bin Abu Najran, from Masny Al Hanaat, from Muhammad Bin Muslim who said, ‘I asked Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> about a man who cursed his wife and denied her child. Then he (admitted) having lied to himself after the cursing, and claimed that her child was his child. Would she be returned to him?’ He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘No, and it is not honourable. She would neither be returned to him, nor would she be Permissible to him up to the Day of Judgement’. He (the narrator) said, ‘And I asked him<sup>asws</sup>, ‘Who would inherit the child?’ He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘His mother’. So I said, ‘What is your<sup>asws</sup> view if the mother dies and the boy inherits her, then the boy dies afterwards, who would inherit him?’ He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘His maternal uncle’. So I said, ‘If the father accepts him, would he inherit the father?’ He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Yes, but the father would not inherit from the son’.
