Hadith.5671 - Al-Hasan ibn Mahbub narrated from Al-Ala, from Muhammad ibn Muslim, from Abu Jafar Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir (as), who said
I asked Imam (as) about a man who marries a woman and then dies before consummating the marriage with her.
Imam (as) said: "She is entitled to the full inheritance, and she must observe the waiting period (iddah) of four months and ten days. If he had specified a dowry (mahr) for her, she is entitled to half of it. However, if he had not specified a dowry, then she is not entitled to any dowry."
5671 - وَ رَوَى اَلْحَسَنُ بْنُ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنِ اَلْعَلاَءِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ
سَأَلْتُهُ عَنِ اَلرَّجُلِ يَتَزَوَّجُ اَلْمَرْأَةَ ثُمَّ يَمُوتُ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَدْخُلَ بِهَا فَقَالَ "لَهَا اَلْمِيرَاثُ كَامِلاً وَ عَلَيْهَا اَلْعِدَّةُ أَرْبَعَةُ أَشْهُرٍ وَ عَشْراً وَ إِنْ كَانَ سَمَّى لَهَا مَهْراً يَعْنِي صَدَاقاً فَلَهَا نِصْفُهُ وَ إِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ سَمَّى لَهَا مَهْراً فَلاَ مَهْرَ لَهَا".
