977. 'Imran bin Husain radiyallahu anhu narrated, 'A man came to the Prophet Sallalahu aleihi wa and said, 'My son's son has died. What is my share from his inheritance?' The Messenger of Allah Sallalahu aleihi wa said, "You get one sixth." When the man turned away, the Messenger of Allah Sallalahu aleihi wa called him and said, "You are entitled to another sixth." (293) When the man turned away, the Messenger of Allah Sallalahu aleihi wa called him and said, "The other sixth is an extra allowance (to what is ordained for you}." Related by Ahmad and the four Imams. At-Tirmidhi graded it Sahih.

293. The deceased in this case left two daughters and his father surviving him. The two daughters are entitled to 2/3 of the estate. The remaining third will be given to the grandfather, but his prescribed share is only one sixth and the other sixth will be given back to him as there are no other heirs. In this case the grandfather is considered to be Asabah which refers to the relatives of the deceased on his father's side. They are entitled to take the rest of the estate after the fixed (prescribed) shares are distributed, which applies to this case. The Messenger of Allah Sallalahu aleihi wa wanted to teach the man that his prescribed share is only one sixth and not one third. That is why he gave him one sixth when he asked about his inheritance, and then called him again and told him t.hat this other sixth is an extra mount to his share as it is given back to him for being Asabah in the absence of any other heirs.

983. 'Umar bin al-Khattab radiyallahu anhu narrated, 'I heard the Messenger of Allah Sallalahu aleihi wa say, "Whatever rights gained by the father or child (meaning al-Wala (296)) are to be transferred to his 'Asabah: (relatives on his father's side) regardless of their degree of kinship (297) (meaning that loyalty is not inherited and does not follow the rules of inheritance)."Related by Abu Dawud, An-Nasa'i and Ibn Majah. Ibn al-Madini and Ibn 'Abdul Barr graded it as Sahih.

296. Wala' refers to the right of inheriting the property of a manumitted slave after his death. The one who has the right to inherit him is the one who manumitted him. In Jahliyah before Islam, they used to sell this Wala' or give it as a gift but Islam prohibited this.

297. Most scholars are of the opinion that Wala is not part of the inheritance of the deceased. For example if a man manumitted a slave, and he has two sons, and one of his sons had a child and then died. If the manumitter dies, the Wala' the manumitted slave (his inheritance) goes to his son alone and is not to be shared between the son and the grandson as would be in the case of inheritance. This means that Wala is the right of the closest Asabah of the deceased and not to be distributed as part of his inheritance,

At- Tirmidhi, Ibn Hibban and al-Hakim graded it as Sahih.
