Hadith #5670

5670 - وَ رَوَى صَالِحُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ يُونُسَ عَنْ بَعْضِ رِجَالِهِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ : سَأَلْتُهُ مَا اَلْعِلَّةُ اَلَّتِي مِنْ أَجْلِهَا إِذَا طَلَّقَ اَلرَّجُلُ اِمْرَأَتَهُ وَ هُوَ مَرِيضٌ فِي حَالِ اَلْإِضْرَارِ وَرِثَتْهُ وَ لَمْ يَرِثْهَا فَقَالَ "هُوَ اَلْإِضْرَارُ وَ مَعْنَى اَلْإِضْرَارِ مَنْعُهُ إِيَّاهَا مِيرَاثَهَا مِنْهُ فَأُلْزِمَ اَلْمِيرَاثَ عُقُوبَةً".

Hadith.5670 - Salih ibn Said narrated from Yunus, from some of his companions, from Abu Abdullah Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq , who said: I asked Imam : "What is the reason that when a man divorces his wife while he is ill in a state of harm (idrar), she inherits from him, but he does not inherit from her?" He replied: "It is due to the harm. The meaning of harm here is his intention to prevent her from inheriting from him, so he was held accountable by being obligated to allow her inheritance as a form of punishment."
