Sunan Ibn Majah 2730 (Book 23, Hadith 12) #32084
Inheritance between Muslims and Disbelievers

SUMMARY: The hadith is about the inheritance of a Muslim from a disbeliever and vice versa.

It was narrated from Usamah bin Zaid that he said: "O Messenger of Allah, will you stay in your house in Makkah?" He said: "Has 'Aqeel left us any houses?" 'Aqeel had inherited Abu Talib along with Talib. Neither Ja'far nor 'Ali inherited anything because they had been Muslims, and 'Aqeel and Talib had been disbelievers. So on account of that, Omar would say the believer does not inherit from the disbeliever. And Usamah said: the Messenger of Allah said "The Muslim does not inherit from the disbeliever nor the disbeliever from the Muslim".
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَمْرِو بْنِ السَّرْحِ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ وَهْبٍ، أَنْبَأَنَا يُونُسُ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ، أَنَّهُ حَدَّثَهُ أَنَّ عَمْرَو بْنَ عُثْمَانَ أَخْبَرَهُ عَنْ أُسَامَةَ بْنِ زَيْدٍ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَتَنْزِلُ فِي دَارِكَ بِمَكَّةَ قَالَ ‏"‏ وَهَلْ تَرَكَ لَنَا عَقِيلٌ مِنْ رِبَاعٍ أَوْ دُورٍ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ وَكَانَ عَقِيلٌ وَرِثَ أَبَا طَالِبٍ هُوَ وَطَالِبٌ وَلَمْ يَرِثْ جَعْفَرٌ وَلاَ عَلِيٌّ شَيْئًا لأَنَّهُمَا كَانَا مُسْلِمَيْنِ وَكَانَ عَقِيلٌ وَطَالِبٌ كَافِرَيْنِ ‏.‏ فَكَانَ عُمَرُ مِنْ أَجْلِ ذَلِكَ يَقُولُ لاَ يَرِثُ الْمُؤْمِنُ الْكَافِرَ ‏.‏ وَقَالَ أُسَامَةُ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏"‏ لاَ يَرِثُ الْمُسْلِمُ الْكَافِرَ وَلاَ الْكَافِرُ الْمُسْلِمَ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is narrated by Usamah bin Zaid, who asked the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ if he would stay in his house in Makkah. The Prophet ﷺ then asked if 'Aqeel had left them any houses, as 'Aqeel was Abu Talib's inheritor along with Talib. Omar then said that a believer does not inherit from a disbeliever, to which the Prophet ﷺ replied that neither does a disbeliever inherit from a believer. This hadith teaches us that when it comes to inheritance, there should be no distinction between believers and non-believers; rather, it should be based on what has been predetermined by Allah SWT alone. It also serves as an example of how we should treat each other regardless of our beliefs or backgrounds - with respect and kindness.
