5700 - رَوَى مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ أَبَانِ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ : فِي اَلرَّجُلِ يُسْلِمُ عَلَى اَلْمِيرَاثِ قَالَ "إِنْ كَانَ قُسِمَ فَلاَ حَقَّ لَهُ وَ إِنْ كَانَ لَمْ يُقْسَمْ فَلَهُ اَلْمِيرَاثُ" قَالَ قُلْتُ اَلْعَبْدُ يُعْتَقُ عَلَى مِيرَاثٍ فَقَالَ "هُوَ بِمَنْزِلَتِهِ".

Hadith.5700 - Muhammad ibn Abi Umayr narrated from Aban ibn Uthman from Muhammad ibn Muslim from Abu Abdullah (as) regarding a man who accepts Islam for the sake of inheritance. Imam (as) said: "If the inheritance has already been divided, then he has no right to it. But if it has not been divided, then he is entitled to the inheritance." I asked: "What about a slave who is freed for the sake of inheritance?" Imam (as) said: "He is in the same position."
