Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ قَالَ سَمِعْتُهُ مِنَ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ سَعِيدٍ أَنَّ عُمَرَ قَالَ الدِّيَةُ لِلْعَاقِلَةِ وَلَا تَرِثُ الْمَرْأَةُ مِنْ دِيَةِ زَوْجِهَا حَتَّى أَخْبَرَهُ الضَّحَّاكُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ الْكِلَابِيُّ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَتَبَ إِلَيَّ أَنْ أُوَرِّثَ امْرَأَةَ أَشْيَمَ الضَّبَابِيِّ مِنْ دِيَةِ زَوْجِهَا فَرَجَعَ عُمَرُ عَنْ قَوْلِهِ.
English Translation
Sufyan told us, saying: I heard it from al-Zuhri, from Sa'id, that Umar said: "The blood-money belongs to the paternal kin, and a wife does not inherit from the blood-money of her husband" - until al-Dahhak ibn Sufyan al-Kilabi informed him that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, had written to him that he should let the wife of Ashyam al-Dababi inherit from the blood-money of her husband, so Umar retracted his statement.
