The Inheritance of a Killer

2- أَحْمَدُ عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنِ النَّضْرِ بْنِ سُوَيْدٍ عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ سُلَيْمَانَ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللهِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) عَنْ رَجُلٍ قَتَلَ أُمَّهُ أَيَرِثُهَا قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبِي (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) يَقُولُ أَيُّمَا رَجُلٍ ذُو رَحِمٍ قَتَلَ قَرِيبَهُ لَمْ يَرِثْهُ.
2. Al-Husayn ibn Sa‘id has narrated from al-Nadr ibn Suwayd from al-Qasim ibn Muhammad ibn Sulayman who has narrated the following: “I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah عليه السلام, about the case of a man who has killed his mother; if he can inherit her. He (the Imam) said, ‘I heard my father عليه السلام, saying, “Whoever of the relatives kills one of his relatives he cannot inherit from that relative.’””
