2. A number of our people have narrated from Sahl ibn Ziyad and Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad, all from ibn Mahbub from Ali ibn Ri’ab from Fudayl ibn Yasar who has narrated the following: “I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah , about the case of a newborn who does not have the male or female organ. He (the Imam) said, ‘The Imam or one who casts raffle settles it by means of casting a raffle. On one token, he writes ‘male servant of Allah’, on the other he writes ‘female servant of Allah’. Then the Imam or the one who is casting the raffle says, ‘O Lord, You are Allah, no one deserves worship except You. You have the knowledge of the apparent and the unseen. You decide among Your servants in matters where they have differences, so please guide us in the matter of this newborn about inheritance and about Your ordained shares for this newborn in the book.’ The two tokens then are mixed with other similar tokens, then one is picked up randomly until one of the two tokens comes out and accordingly the matter of inheritance is decided.’”
