Hadith.5472 - In the book of Muhammad ibn Yaʿqub Al-Kulayni (may Allah (swt) have mercy on him), narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad, from Ali ibn Al-Hasan Al-Mithami, from his two brothers Muhammad and Ahmad, from their father, from Dawud ibn Abi Yazid, from Burayd ibn Muawiyah, it is reported: A man passed away and appointed two individuals as executors of his will. One of them said to his companion, "Take half of what he left behind, and give me the other half." However, the other refused. They sought guidance from Abu Abdullah (as) regarding this matter, and Imam (as) said
"That rightfully belongs to him."
5472 - وَ فِي كِتَابِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ يَعْقُوبَ اَلْكُلَيْنِيِّ رَحِمَهُ اَللَّهُ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ اَلْحَسَنِ اَلْمِيثَمِيِّ عَنْ أَخَوَيْهِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ أَحْمَدَ عَنْ أَبِيهِمَا عَنْ دَاوُدَ بْنِ أَبِي يَزِيدَ عَنْ بُرَيْدِ بْنِ مُعَاوِيَةَ قَالَ
إِنَّ رَجُلاً مَاتَ وَ أَوْصَى إِلَى رَجُلَيْنِ فَقَالَ أَحَدُهُمَا لِصَاحِبِهِ خُذْ نِصْفَ مَا تَرَكَ وَ أَعْطِنِي اَلنِّصْفَ مِمَّا تَرَكَ فَأَبَى عَلَيْهِ اَلْآخَرُ فَسَأَلُوا أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنْ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ "ذَاكَ لَهُ".
