عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي نَصْرٍ عَنْ مُثَنًّى الْحَنَّاطِ عَنْ زُرَارَةَ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) فِي الْمَرْأَةِ الْحَامِلِ الْمُتَوَفَّى عَنْهَا زَوْجُهَا هَلْ لَهَا نَفَقَةٌ قَالَ لَا .وَ رُوِيَ أَيْضاً أَنَّ نَفَقَتَهَا مِنْ مَالِ وَلَدِهَا الَّذِي فِي بَطْنِهَا . رَوَاهُ .
9. A number of our people have narrated from Sahl ibn Ziyad from ibn abu Nasr from Muthanna’ al-Hannat from Zurarah who has said the following: “About the case of a pregnant widow abu ‘Abd Allah عليه السلام, has said that she does not have the right to receive maintenance.’” It is also narrated that her maintenance is from the assets of the child in her womb. [So he has narrated].
