2097. Jãbir bin 'Abdulläh narrated: "I was ill, so the Messenger of Allah 9, came to visit me and found me unconscious. He came walking while AN Bakr and 'Umar were with him. The Messenger of Allah 4f performed Wudü', then poured the remaining water on me, so I came to my senses. I said: '0 Messenger of Allah! How shall I dispose of my wealth?' - or - 'What shall I do with my wealth?' He did not reply anything to me" - and he had nine sisters - "until the Ayah about inheritance was revealed: They ask you for a legal verdict. Say: "Allah directs (thus) about Al-Ka1a1ah." 11 Jabir said: "It was revealed regarding me."(aziz) [Abu 'EIsa said:] This Hadith is Hasan Sahih.

Commentary
The Qur'anic Verse makes it clear that if a person dies and leaves behind neither parents nor children, but a single (real) sister, then the sister shall inherit half of his wealth. In case the sisters are more than one, they shall get a share of two-third of his wealth. If there is a brother in addition to the sister as well, the brother shall get twice as much as the sister.
