Chapter on the Inheritance of Grandfathers and Grandmothers

وَ رَوَى اَلْحَسَنُ بْنُ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ رِئَابٍ عَنْ أَبِي عُبَيْدَةَ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: فِي رَجُلٍ مَاتَ وَ تَرَكَ اِمْرَأَتَهُ وَ أُخْتَهُ وَ جَدَّهُ فَقَالَ "هَذِهِ مِنْ أَرْبَعَةِ أَسْهُمٍ لِلْمَرْأَةِ اَلرُّبُعُ وَ لِلْأُخْتِ سَهْمٌ وَ لِلْجَدِّ سَهْمَانِ".
Al-Hasan ibn Mahbub narrated from Ali ibn Riʾab from Abu Ubaydah from Abu Jafar عليه السلام regarding a man who passed away and left behind his wife, his sister, and his grandfather. Imam عليه السلام said: "This inheritance is divided into four shares: the wife receives one-fourth, the sister receives one share, and the grandfather receives two shares."
