12. It is narrated from the narrator of the previous Hadith from Muhammad ibn Ahmad from al-Husayn ibn Malik who has narrated the following
“I once wrote to him (the Imam) (a.s.), ‘A man has died who in his lifetime had made everything that he had for you and he did not have any children, thereafter a child was born to him and his assets are three thousand dirham. He has sent to you one thousand dirham. I like to know your decision in the matter so I can follow.’ He (the Imam) (a.s.), wrote the answer that said, ‘I leave it for them.’”
12- عَنْهُ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَحْمَدَ عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ قَالَ
كَتَبْتُ إِلَيْهِ رَجُلٌ مَاتَ وَجَعَلَ كُلَّ شَيْ‏ءٍ لَهُ فِي حَيَاتِهِ لَكَ وَلَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ وَلَدٌ ثُمَّ إِنَّهُ أَصَابَ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ وَلَداً وَمَبْلَغُ مَالِهِ ثَلاثَةُ آلافِ دِرْهَمٍ وَقَدْ بَعَثْتُ إِلَيْكَ بِأَلْفِ دِرْهَمٍ فَإِنْ رَأَيْتَ جَعَلَنِيَ اللهُ فِدَاكَ أَنْ تُعْلِمَنِي فِيهِ رَأْيَكَ لأعْمَلَ بِهِ فَكَتَبَ أَطْلِقْ لَهُمْ.
