English Translation
Muhammad b. Ja'far narrated to us: Shu'ba narrated to us, from Budayl, from Ali b. Abi Talha, from Rashid b. Sa'd, from Abu Amir al-Hawzani, from al-Miqdam Abu Karima, from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), that he said: "Whoever leaves behind dependents, they are the responsibility of Allah and His Messenger" - and sometimes he said "they are our responsibility" - "and whoever leaves behind wealth, it is for his heir. The maternal uncle is the heir of one who has no heir. And I am the heir of one who has no heir; I inherit from him and pay blood-money on his behalf." Hajjaj narrated to us: Shu'ba narrated to us and mentioned it, saying it was from al-Miqdam of Kinda, who was one of the Companions of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), similarly.
