Hadith.5600 - Sama'ah narrated from Abu Basir from Abu Jafar Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir (as) who said
Indeed, the Commander of the Faithful (as) used to say, "Surely, the One who counted the grains of sand in Alij knows that the shares (of inheritance) do not exceed six if people were to truly understand their proper allocations; they would never surpass six."
5600 - رَوَى سَمَاعَةُ عَنْ أَبِي بَصِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ
إِنَّ أَمِيرَ اَلْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ كَانَ يَقُولُ : "إِنَّ اَلَّذِي أَحْصَى رَمْلَ عَالِجٍ يَعْلَمُ أَنَّ اَلسِّهَامَ لاَ تَعُولُ عَلَى سِتَّةٍ لَوْ يُبْصِرُونَ وُجُوهَهَا لَمْ تَجُزْ سِتَّةً".
