Inheritance of the Grandfather

1. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr and Muhammad ibn ‘Isa from Yunus all from ‘Umar ibn ’Udhaynah from Zurarah who has narrated the following: “I once asked abu Ja‘far عليه السلام, about the ordained share of grandfather. He (the Imam) said, ’I do not know anyone who has spoken about it but that it is his own opinion except Ali عليه السلام, who has spoken about it with the words of the Messenger of Allah, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause.’” Al-Husayn ibn Muhammad has narrated from Mu‘alla’ ibn Muhammad from al-Hassan ibn Ali al- Washsha’ from Aban ibn ‘Uthman from Zurarah from abu Ja‘far عليه السلام, a similar Hadith.
