Chapter on the Inheritance of the Magians (Zoroastrians)
وَ فِي رِوَايَةِ اَلْحَسَنِ بْنِ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ رِئَابٍ وَ خَطَّابٍ أَبِي مُحَمَّدٍ اَلْهَمْدَانِيِّ عَنْ طِرْبَالٍ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: "إِنَّ اَلْمَرْأَةَ لاَ تَرِثُ مِمَّا تَرَكَ زَوْجُهَا مِنَ اَلْقُرَى وَ اَلدُّورِ وَ اَلسِّلاَحِ وَ اَلدَّوَابِّ وَ تَرِثُ مِنَ اَلْمَالِ وَ اَلرَّقِيقِ وَ اَلثِّيَابِ وَ مَتَاعِ اَلْبَيْتِ مِمَّا تَرَكَ" فَقَالَ "وَ يُقَوَّمُ نِقْضُ اَلْأَجْذَاعِ وَ اَلْقَصَبِ وَ اَلْأَبْوَابِ فَتُعْطَى حَقَّهَا مِنْهُ".
In the narration of Al-Hasan ibn Mahbub from Ali ibn Riʾab and Khaṭṭab Abu Muhammad Al-Hamdani from Ṭirbal from Abu Jafar Imam Al-Baqir عليه السلام, he said: "A woman does not inherit from what her husband leaves behind of villages, houses, weapons, or animals. However, she inherits from money, slaves, clothing, and household items that he leaves behind." Imam عليه السلام then said: "The dismantled parts of palm trunks, reeds, and doors are evaluated, and she is given her rightful share from that."
