Narrated/Authority of Jabir bin Abdullah
"The wife of Sad bin Rabi came with the two daughters of Sad to the Prophet (saw) and said: 'O Messenger of Allah, these are the two daughters of Sad. He was killed with you on the day of Uhud, and their paternal uncle has taken all that their father left behind, and a woman is only married for her wealth.' The Prophet (saw) remained silent until the Verse of inheritance was revealed to him. Then the Messenger of Allah (saw) called the brother of Sad bin Rabi and said: 'Give the two daughters of Sad two thirds of his wealth, and give his wife on eighth, and take what is left.'"

Hadith No: 2721
Narrated/Authority of Huzail bin Shurahbil
"A man came to Abu Musa Al-Ashari and Salman bin Rabiah Al-Bahili and asked them about (the shares of) a daughter, a son's daughter, a sister through one's father and mother. They said: 'The daughter gets one half, and what is left goes to the sister. Go to Ibn Masud, for he will concur with what we say.' So the man went to Ibn Masud, and told him what they had said. Abdullah said: 'I will go astray and will not be guided (if I say that I agree); but I will judge as the Messenger of Allah (saw) judged. The daughter gets one half, and the son's daughter gets one-sixth. That makes two thirds. And what is left goes to the sister.'"

Hadith No: 2724
Narrated/Authority of Ibn Dhuaib
"A grandmother came to Abu Bakr Siddiq and asked him for her inheritance. Abu Bakr said to her: 'You have nothing according to the Book of Allah, and I don't know of anything for you according to the Book of Allah, and I don't know of anything for you according to the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah (saw). Go back until I ask the people.' So he asked the people and Al-Mughirah bin Shubah said: 'I was present with the Messenger of Allah (saw) and he gave her (the grandmother) one sixth.' Abu Bakr said: 'Is there anyone else with you (who will corroborate what you say)?' Muhammad bin Maslamah Al-Ansari stood up and said something like what Mughirah bin Shubah had said. So Abu Bakr applied it in her case." "Then the other grandmother, on the father's side came to Umar and asked him for her inheritance. He said: 'You have nothing according to the book of Allah. The ruling that was passed applied to someone other than you, and I will not make any addition to the shares of inheritance. But it is one sixth. If there are two of you then it is to be shared between you, and if one of you is alone then it all belongs to her.' " Sahih

Narrated/Authority of Madan bin Abu Talhah Al-Yamuri
that Umar bin Khattab stood up to deliver a sermon one Friday, or he addressed them one Friday. He praised and glorified Allah, and said: "By Allah, I am not leaving behind any problem more difficult than the one who leaves behind an heir. I asked the Messenger of Allah (saw), and he never spoke so harshly to me about anything as he spoke to me about this. He jabbed his finger into my side or my chest and said: 'O Umar, sufficient for you is the Verse that was revealed in summer, at the end of Surat An-Nisa'." Sahih

Narrated/Authority of Muhammad bin Munkadir
that he heard Jabir bin Abdullah say: "I fell sick and the Messenger of Allah (saw) came to visit me, he and Abu Bakr with him, and they came walking. I had lost consciousness, so the Messenger of Allah (saw) performed ablution and poured some of the water of his ablution over me. I said: 'O Messenger of Allah (saw), what should I do? How should I decide about my wealth?' Until the Verse of inheritance was revealed at the end of An-Nisa': "If the man or woman whose inheritance is in question has left neither ascendants or descendents." [4:12] And: "They ask you for a legal verdict. Say: 'Allah directs (thus) about those who leave neither descendants nor ascendants as heirs.'" [4:176] Sahih
