قَالَ مَالِكٌ: وَمِيرَاثُ الرَّجُلِ مِنِ امْرَأَتِهِ، إِذَا لَمْ تَتْرُكْ وَلَدًا وَلَا وَلَدَ ابْنٍ مِنْهُ أَوْ مِنْ غَيْرِهِ، النِّصْفُ. فَإِنْ تَرَكَتْ وَلَدًا، أَوْ وَلَدَ ابْنٍ، ذَكَرًا كَانَ أَوْ أُنْثَى، فَلِزَوْجِهَا الرُّبُعُ، مِنْ بَعْدِ وَصِيَّةٍ تُوصِي بِهَا أَوْ دَيْنٍ. وَمِيرَاثُ الْمَرْأَةِ مِنْ زَوْجِهَا، إِذَا لَمْ يَتْرُكْ وَلَدًا وَلَا وَلَدَ ابْنٍ، الرُّبُعُ. فَإِنْ تَرَكَ وَلَدًا، أَوْ وَلَدَ ابْنٍ، ذَكَرًا كَانَ أَوْ أُنْثَى، فَلِامْرَأَتِهِ الثُّمُنُ. مِنْ بَعْدِ وَصِيَّةٍ يُوصِي بِهَا أَوْ دَيْنٍ، وَذَلِكَ أَنَّ اللَّهَ ﵎ يَقُولُ فِي كِتَابِهِ ﴿وَلَكُمْ نِصْفُ مَا تَرَكَ أَزْوَاجُكُمْ، إِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُنَّ وَلَدٌ، فَإِنْ كَانَ لَهُنَّ وَلَدٌ، فَلَكُمُ الرُّبُعُ مِمَّا تَرَكْنَ مِنْ بَعْدِ وَصِيَّةٍ يُوصِينَ بِهَا أَوْ دَيْنٍ، وَلَهُنَّ الرُّبُعُ مِمَّا تَرَكْتُمْ إِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ لَكُمْ وَلَدٌ، فَإِنْ كَانَ لَكُمْ وَلَدٌ فَلَهُنَّ الثُّمُنُ مِمَّا تَرَكْتُمْ، مِنْ بَعْدِ وَصِيَّةٍ تُوصُونَ بِهَا أَوْ دَيْنٍ﴾ [النساء: ١٢]
Malik Narrated from:
The inheritance of a husband from a wife when she leaves no children or grandchildren through sons is a half. If she leaves children or grandchildren through sons, male or female, by her present or previous husbands, the husband has a quarter after bequests or debts. The inheritance of a wife from a husband who does not leave children or grandchildren through sons is a quarter. If he leaves children or grandchildren through sons, male or female, the wife has an eighth after bequests and debts. That is because Allah, the Blessed, the Exalted! said in His Book, 'You have a half of what your wives leave if they have no children. If they have children, you have a fourth of what they leave after bequests and debts. They have a fourth of what you leave if you have no children. If you have children, they have an eighth after bequests or debts.' " (Sura 4 ayat 11).
