“Once abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), was asked about the case of a newborn who is not a male or female except that the child has an anus and about the inheritance of such child. He (the Imam) said, ‘The Imam with Muslim people sits in a gathering and prays to Allah, most Majestic, most Glorious, then mixes the arrows (tokens) to find out thereby if the child must receive from the legacy as a male or a female person. Whichever ’s token or arrow comes out it then is taken as means of settlement. He (the Imam) then said, ‘No other means is as fair as raffle; Allah, most Majestic, most Glorious, has said, ‘They cast raffle and he was of those who failed in the raffle.’ (37:141)” He (the Imam) said, ‘For every matter about which two people dispute, there is a principle for it in the book of Allah but the power of reason of people cannot reach it.’”
