Sunan Abi Dawud 2252 (Book 13, Hadith 78) #22543
Inheritance Law Established by Allaah

SUMMARY: The hadith is about a woman who was pregnant and her son was attributed to her, and the practice of inheritance law established that the son gets a share in the inheritance of his mother and vice versa.

The tradition mentioned above has also been transmitted by Sahl bin Sa’d through a different chain of narrators. This version has "She was pregnant, he denied pregnancy from him. So her son was attributed to her. In the law of succession the practice (sunnah) was established that the son gets a share in the inheritance of his mother and the mother gets the share in the inheritance of her son according to the shares prescribed by Allaah the Exalted.
حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ دَاوُدَ الْعَتَكِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا فُلَيْحٌ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ، فِي هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ وَكَانَتْ حَامِلاً فَأَنْكَرَ حَمْلَهَا فَكَانَ ابْنُهَا يُدْعَى إِلَيْهَا ثُمَّ جَرَتِ السُّنَّةُ فِي الْمِيرَاثِ أَنْ يَرِثَهَا وَتَرِثَ مِنْهُ مَا فَرَضَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ لَهَا

QUICK LESSONS:
Follow Islamic Laws regarding Inheritance Fairly & Equally , Respect Mothers

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith speaks about an important Islamic law regarding inheritance. It tells us that when a woman is pregnant with her child, she will be given credit for it even if the father denies it. This means that when it comes to inheritance laws in Islam, both the mother and son have rights over each other's property. The son has a right to receive a share from his mother's estate while she also has rights over his estate after he passes away. This shows us how important mothers are in Islam as they are given special rights even if their children are not acknowledged by their fathers. It also teaches us that we should always be fair when distributing our wealth among our family members according to Islamic laws so everyone can benefit from it equally.
