Arabic Text

أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ ، عَنْ أَبِي سَهْلٍ ، عَنْ الشَّعْبِيِّ : أَنَّ ابْنَ مَسْعُودٍ كَانَ يَقُولُ فِي بِنْتٍ وَبَنَاتِ ابْنٍ، وَابْنِ ابْنٍ :" إِنْ كَانَتِ الْمُقَاسَمَةُ بَيْنَهُمْ أَقَلَّ مِنْ السُّدُسِ، أَعْطَاهُمْ السُّدُسَ، وَإِنْ كَانَ أَكْثَرَ مِنَ السُّدُس، ِأَعْطَاهُمُ السُّدُسَ "

English Translation

It was narrated from al-Sha'bi that Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) used to say regarding a daughter, granddaughters, and a grandson: 'If the equal division among them is less than a sixth, give them a sixth; and if it is more than a sixth, give them the sixth.'
