5676. Narrated Jābir bin 'Abdullāh رضي الله عنه: The Prophet ﷺ came to me while I was ill. He performed ablution and threw the remaining water on me (or said, "Pour it on him"). When I came to my senses I said, "O Allāh's Messenger! I have no son or father to be my heir, so how will be my inheritance?" Then the Verse of Inheritance was revealed.
5676 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنَا غُنْدَرٌ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ المُنْكَدِرِ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا، قَالَ: دَخَلَ عَلَيَّ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَأَنَا مَرِيضٌ، فَتَوَضَّأَ فَصَبَّ عَلَيَّ أَوْ قَالَ: «صُبُّوا عَلَيْهِ» فَعَقَلْتُ، فَقُلْتُ: لاَ يَرِثُنِي إِلَّا كَلاَلَةٌ، فَكَيْفَ المِيرَاثُ؟ فَنَزَلَتْ آيَةُ الفَرَائِضِ
