Information for "MuwataMalik-017-001-35156"

Yahya related to me from Malik from a reliable source of his who had heard Said Ibn AlMusayab say; Umar Ibn AlKhattab refused to let anyone inherit from the non-arabs except for one who was born among the arabs. Malik said; If a pregnant woman comes from the land of the enemy and gives birth in arab land so that he is her an arab child; he inherits from her if she dies; and she inherits from him if he dies; by the Book of Allah. Malik said; The generally agreed on way of doing things among us and the sunna in which there is no dispute; and what I saw the people of knowledge in our city doing; is that a Muslim does not inherit from a kafir by kinship; clientage wala ; or maternal relationship; nor does he the Muslim overshadow any of the kafirs from his inheritance. Malik said; Similarly; someone who forgoes his inheritance when he is the chief heir does not overshadow anyone from his inheritance.
