(Book 38, Hadith 24) #36558
Inheritance of Mawali

SUMMARY: The hadith explains the inheritance of mawali (freed slaves) when a man dies and leaves three sons, two of whom have children.

Malik related to me that he had heard that Said ibn al-Musayyab spoke about a man who died and left three sons and left mawali whom he had freed. Then two of his sons died and left children. He said, "The third remaining son inherits the mawali. When he dies, his children and the children of his brothers share equally in the wala' of the mawali".
وَحَدَّثَنِي مَالِكٌ، أَنَّهُ بَلَغَهُ أَنَّ سَعِيدَ بْنَ الْمُسَيَّبِ، قَالَ فِي رَجُلٍ هَلَكَ وَتَرَكَ بَنِينَ لَهُ ثَلاَثَةً وَتَرَكَ مَوَالِيَ أَعْتَقَهُمْ هُوَ عَتَاقَةً ثُمَّ إِنَّ الرَّجُلَيْنِ مِنْ بَنِيهِ هَلَكَا وَتَرَكَا أَوْلاَدًا ‏.‏ فَقَالَ سَعِيدُ بْنُ الْمُسَيَّبِ يَرِثُ الْمَوَالِيَ الْبَاقِي مِنَ الثَّلاَثَةِ فَإِذَا هَلَكَ هُوَ فَوَلَدُهُ وَوَلَدُ إِخْوَتِهِ فِي وَلاَءِ الْمَوَالِي شَرَعٌ سَوَاءٌ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith discusses the rules of inheritance in Islam. When a man dies and leaves behind three sons, two of whom have children, the third remaining son inherits the mawali (freed slaves). When he passes away, his children and the children of his brothers share equally in the wala' (inheritance) of the mawali. This is according to Islamic law which states that all heirs should receive their due share in an estate or inheritance. It is important to note that this law applies only to those who are related by blood or marriage; it does not apply to strangers or non-relatives. Furthermore, it is important for Muslims to ensure that they follow these laws so as not to cause any injustice or harm upon others.
