حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَرَفَةَ، قال حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سَالِمٍ، عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ، عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ، قَالَ فِي الْجَدَّةِ مَعَ ابْنِهَا إِنَّهَا أَوَّلُ جَدَّةٍ أَطْعَمَهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم سُدُسًا مَعَ ابْنِهَا وَابْنُهَا حَىٌّ . قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ لاَ نَعْرِفُهُ مَرْفُوعًا إِلاَّ مِنْ هَذَا الْوَجْهِ . - وَقَدْ وَرَّثَ بَعْضُ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم الْجَدَّةَ مَعَ ابْنِهَا وَلَمْ يُوَرِّثْهَا بَعْضُهُمْ .

Summary of Jami at-Tirmidhi Hadith 2102
This Hadith focuses on a specific question about grandmother inheritance: what happens when the grandmother is present along with her son. Abdullah bin Mas'ud said that the first grandmother was given a sixth by the Messenger of Allah while her son was living. The wording is narrow, so the explanation should stay narrow too. It does not list every possible inheritance case. It simply records that this grandmother was given one-sixth in that situation. The note in the provided text also says that some Companions gave the grandmother inheritance along with her son, while others did not. So the Hadith is useful for understanding that inheritance questions were handled with care, evidence, and attention to the exact family situation.
What we learn from this hadith
- The narration mentions a grandmother receiving one-sixth.
- The case is tied to a specific situation: the grandmother was with her son.
- The provided note shows that some Companions differed in applying this issue.
- In inheritance matters, the exact family relationship changes the ruling.
