The Meanings of Reports · Hadith 371 (#Ḥadīth #2)

أبي - رحمه الله - قال: حدثنا سعد بن عبد الله، عن أحمد بن محمد، عن علي بن الحكم، عن أبان الأحمر، عن عبد الله بن سنان قال: سألت أبا عبد الله عليه السلام عن امرأة أوصت بثلثها يقضي به دين ابن أخيها وجزء لفلان وفلانة فلم أعرف ذلك، فقدمنا إلى ابن أبي ليلى. قال: فما قال لك؟ قلت: قال: ليس لهما شئ. فقال: كذب والله، لهما العشر من الثلث.

2. My father, may Allah grant him mercy, said: We were told by Sa’d bin Abdullah, from Ahmad bin Muhammed, from Ali bin Hakam, from Aban al-Ahmar, from Abdullah bin Sinan, that he said: I asked Abu Abdillah, peace be upon him, of a woman who bequeathed with her third, that the debt of the son of her brother is cleared with it, and that a part is for such-a-male and such-a-female, and I did not know (how to deal with) that, so we approached Ibn Abi Layla. He said: So what did he say to you? I said: He said: There is nothing to them. So he said: He has lied, by Allah. To them is a tenth of the third.
