Hadith 375
۞
1. We were told by my father, may Allah grant him mercy, that he said: We were told by Sa’d bin Abdullah, from Ahmad bin Muhammed bin Isa, from Muhammed bin Khalid al-Barqi, from Abdullah bin Mughaira, from Abdul-Rahman al-Ju’fi, that he said
I used to attend at Ibn Abi Layla with regards to inheritance, and he used to push me. When that had (lasted for a) prolonged (time), I complained about him to Ja’far ibn Muhammed, peace be upon them both, so he said: Does he not know that the Messenger of Allah, Allah’s blessings be upon him and his Family, ordered for the return of the restrained and the fulfilment of inheritance? He said: Then I went to him, and he did what he used to do, so I said to him: I complained about you to Ja’far bin Muhammed, peace be upon them both, and he said to me such-and-such. Then Ibn Abi Layla made me swear that he said that, so I swore to him, and he ruled to my favor in that (case).
حدثنا أبي - رحمه الله - قال: حدثنا سعد بن عبد الله، عن أحمد بن محمد بن عيسى عن محمد بن خالد البرقي، عن عبد الله بن المغيرة، عن عبد الرحمن الجعفي، قال
كنت أختلف إلى ابن أبي ليلى في مواريث وكان يدافعني فلما طال ذلك علي شكوته إلى جعفر ابن محمد عليهما السلام فقال: أو ما علم أن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله أمر برد الحبيس وإنفاذ المواريث؟ قال: فأتيته ففعل كما كان يفعل، فقلت له: إني شكوتك إلى جعفر بن محمد عليهما السلام فقال لي: كيت وكيت، فحلفني ابن أبي ليلى أنه قال ذلك لك، فحلفت له فقضى لي بذلك.
