It was
narrated from ‘Amr bin Shu’aib, from his father, from his
grandfather that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “Whoever
commits
adultery with a slave woman or a free woman, his child is
illegitimate, and he cannot inherit from him or be inherited from
(i.e., this child cannot inherit from him).”

It was
narrated from ‘Ali bin Abu Talib, Abu Darda’, Abu Hurairah, Abu
Umamah Al-Bahili, ‘Abdullah bin ‘Umar, ‘Abdullah bin ‘Amr,
Jabir bin
‘Abdullah and ‘Imran bin Husain, all of them narrating
that the
Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “Whoever sends financial
support in the
cause of Allah and stays at home, for every Dirham he
will have (the
reward of) seven hundred Dirham. Whoever fights
himself in the cause
of Allah, and spends on that, for every Dirham
he will have (the
reward of) seven hundred thousand Dirham.” Then
he recited the Verse:
“Allah gives manifold increase to whom He
wills.”[2:261]

It was
narrated from ‘Amr bin Shu’aib, from his father, from his
grandfather, that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “Every child
who
is attributed to his father after his father to whom he is
attributed
has died, and his heirs attributed him to him after he
died, he ruled
that* whoever was born to a slave woman whom he owned
at the time when
he had intercourse with her, he should be named
after the one to whom
he was attributed, but he has no share of any
inheritance that was
distributed previously. Whatever inheritance he
finds has not yet been
distributed, he will have a share of it. But
he cannot be named after
his father if the man whom he claimed as his
father did not
acknowledge him. If he as born to a slave woman whom
his father did
not own, or to a free woman with whom he committed
adultery, then he
cannot be named after him and he does not inherit
from him, even if
the one whom he claims as his father acknowledges
him. So he is an
illegitimate child who belongs to his mother’s
people, whoever they
are, whether she is a free woman or a slave.”

It was
narrated from Abu Umamah that the Prophet (ﷺ) said: “Whoever
does
not fight, or equip a fighter, or stay behind to look after a
fighter’s family, Allah will strike him with a calamity before the
Day
of Resurrection.”

It was
narrated that Ibn ‘Umar said: “The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)
forbade selling the right of inheritance or giving it away.”

It was
narrated from Abu Hurairah that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)
said: “Whoever meets Allah with no mark on him (as a result of
fighting)
in His cause, he will meet Him with a deficiency.”

It was
narrated that Ibn ‘Umar said: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)
forbade
selling the right of inheritance, or giving it as a gift.

It was
narrated that Anas bin Malik said: “When the Messenger of
Allah
(ﷺ) was returning from the campaign of Tabuk, and had drawn
close
to Al-Madinah, he said: ‘In Al-Madinah there are people who, as
you
traveled and crossed valleys, were with you.’ They said: ‘O
Messenger of Allah, even though they are in Al-Madinah?’ He said:
‘Even though they were in Al-Madinah. They were kept behind by
(legitimate) excuses.’”

It was
narrated from ‘Abdullah bin ‘Umar that the Messenger of Allah
(ﷺ) said: “Whatever division of inheritance was made during the
Ignorance period, stands according to the division of the Ignorance
period, and whatever division of inheritance was made during Islam,
it
stands according to the division of Islam.”

It was
narrated from Jabir that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “If the
child has cired, the (funeral) prayer should be offered for
him (if
he dies) and he is an heir.”
