English Translation

Ahmad ibn Ali the hafiz informed us: Ibrahim ibn Abdullah al-Asbahani narrated to us: Isma'il ibn Ibrahim ibn al-Harith al-Qattan narrated to us: al-Hasan ibn Isa narrated to us: Jarir narrated from al-Mughirah from the companions of Ibrahim and al-Sha'bi, from Ibrahim and al-Sha'bi: Regarding a mother, sister, husband, and grandfather according to Ali's ruling: the mother receives a third, the sister half, the husband half, and the grandfather a sixth - from nine shares. According to Abdullah's ruling: the sister receives half, the husband half, the mother a third, and the grandfather a sixth - from nine shares. The grandfather then shares his sixth with the sister's half, receiving two-thirds and she one-third. The nine is multiplied by three to make twenty-seven: the mother receives six, the husband nine, leaving twelve - the grandfather receives eight and the sister four. This is the Akdariyyah, also known as Umm al-Furuj.
