Inheritance of People Drowned and because of the Collapse of a Structure on them

7. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from Muhammad ibn ’Isma‘il from Hammad ibn ‘Isa from al- Husayn ibn al-Mukhtar who has narrated the following: “Once abu ‘Abd Allah عليه السلام, said to abu Hanifah, ‘O abu Hanifah, what do you say about the case of a people who all die because of the fall of a house? Only two children remain, of whom one is free and the other is a slave of his companion but it is not known which is which’ Abu Hanifah said, ‘One-half of this and one-half of this is set free and the asset must be divided between the two.’ Abu ‘Abd Allah عليه السلام, said, ‘It is not as that. By means of raffle whoever ’s name comes out is free and this one is set free to become the Mawla ’ (master) for him.’”
