Al-Kāfi|Volume 7|Book 2|Chapter 24
3- حُمَيْدُ بْنُ زِيَادٍ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سَمَاعَةَ عَنْ وُهَيْبٍ عَنْ أَبِي بَصِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) قَالَ سَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ الْخَالُ وَالْخَالَةُ يَرِثَانِ إِذَا لَمْ يَكُنْ مَعَهُمَا أَحَدٌ يَرِثُ غَيْرُهُمَا إِنَّ اللهَ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى يَقُولُ وَأُولُوا الأرْحامِ بَعْضُهُمْ أَوْلى بِبَعْضٍ فِي كِتابِ اللهِ.
3. Humayd ibn Ziyad has narrated from al-Hassan ibn Muhammad ibn Sama‘ah, from Wuhayb from abu Basir who has narrated the following: “I once heard abu Ja‘far عليه السلام, saying, ‘Maternal uncle and maternal aunt inherit if there are no other heirs with them. Allah, most Majestic, most Glorious, has said, ‘. . . relatives have priorities over other relatives according to the book of Allah.’ (33:6)”
