15. Afi ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Sa‘d ibn abu Khalaf from ‘Abd al-Rahman ibn abu ‘Abd Allah who has narrated the following:

“I once visited abu ‘Abd Allah , when Aban ibn Taghlib was with him (the Imam) and I said, ‘I pray to Allah to keep you well, my daughter has died and my mother is alive.’ Aban said, ‘There is nothing for your mother.’ Abu ‘Abd Allah , said, ‘Allah is free of all defects, give her one-sixth.’”
