Chapter on the Inheritance of a Woman Whose Husband Has Passed Away

وَ رَوَى اِبْنُ أَبِي نَصْرٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اَلْكَرِيمِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لَهُ رَجُلٌ تَزَوَّجَ اِمْرَأَةً بِحُكْمِهَا فَمَاتَ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَحْكُمَ قَالَ "لَيْسَ لَهَا صَدَاقٌ وَ هِيَ تَرِثُهُ".
Ibn Abi Nasr narrated from Abdul Karim ibn Amr, from Muhammad ibn Muslim, from Abu Jafar Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir عليه السلام, who said: I asked Imam عليه السلام about a man who married a woman according to her own condition (by her terms), but he died before she could set the conditions. Imam عليه السلام said: "She is not entitled to a dowry (ṣadaq), but she inherits from him."
