of the father, she gave birth to a son and a daughter, and one of them cried out. If it is the brother who is the one who cried out, the issue is from thirty-six; and if it is the sister who is the one who cried out, the issue is from thirteen. The two issues are coprime, so multiply one by the other, and it becomes four hundred and sixty-eight. Everyone who has a share from either of the two issues is multiplied by the other; you pay to each person the lesser of the two shares, leaving fourteen, nine of which are between the woman and the uncle, and five between the mother and the uncle. If the woman and the mother are both pregnant, and they deliver together, and one of them cries out, each of them returns to thirty-six, each heir is given the lesser of the two shares, and eleven remain, four of which are withheld between the wife and the mother, and seven between the mother and the uncle.
Section: If the pregnant woman gives birth to twins, and the crying out is heard from one of them, then it is heard a second time, and it is not known if it is from the first or the second, it is possible that the inheritance is established for the one whose crying out is known, to the exclusion of the one we doubted; because the default is the absence of his crying out. According to this probability, if the one who cried out is identified, he is the sole heir, and if his identity is unknown, it is as if one of them cried out, but was not specifically identified. The specialists in inheritance law said: It is worked out based on the scenarios, each heir is given the certain portion, and the remainder is withheld.
Among the problems of this: A pregnant mother, a sister from the father, and an uncle; the mother gave birth to two daughters, and one of them cried out, then the crying out was heard a second time, and it was not known if the other cried out, or if it was repeated from one? It was said: If it was from both of them, they both died leaving four out of six, and the first of them to die is not known, so their ruling is the ruling of those who drown. Whoever is of the opinion that one of them does not inherit from the other said: They have left behind a mother, a sister, and an uncle, so it is valid from eighteen. And if the crying out was from only one, she died leaving three out of six, so it is valid from twelve, and between them there is compatibility.

الأبِ، وَلَدَتْ ابْنًا وبِنْتًا، فاسْتَهَلَّ أحَدُهما، فإنْ كان المُسْتَهِلُّ الأخَ، فهى من سِتَّةٍ وثلاثينَ، وإِنْ كانَتِ الأخْتُ المُسْتَهِلَّةَ، فهى من ثَلاثَةَ عَشَرَ، فالمسْأَلَتانِ مُتبايِنَتانِ، فاضْرِبْ إحْداهما فى الأُخرى، تَكُنْ أربعمائةً وثمانيةً وسِتِّينَ، وكُلُّ مَن له شىءٌ من إحْدى المسْأَلَتَيْنِ مَضْروبٌ فى الأُخْرَى، فيَدْفَعُ [إلى كُل] (٢٣) واحدٍ أقَلَّ النَّصِيبَيْنِ، يَبْقى أرْبَعَةَ عَشَرَ، منها تِسْعَةٌ بَيْنَ الْمَرْأةِ والعَمِّ، وخَمْسَةٌ بَيْنَ الأُمِّ والعَمِّ. فإنْ كانتِ المرْأةُ والأُمُّ حامِلَيْنِ، فَوَضَعَتا مَعًا، فاسْتَهَلَّ أحَدُهما، فكُلُّ واحدةٍ منهما تَرْجِعُ إلى سِتَّةٍ وثلاثين، فيعْطَى كُلُّ وارثٍ أقَلَّ النَّصِيبَيْنِ، ويَبْقَى أحَدَ عَشَرَ، منها أرْبَعةٌ مَوْقوفَةٌ بَيْنَ الزَّوْجَةِ والأُمِّ، وسَبْعَةٌ بينَ الأُمِّ والعَمِّ.
فصل: واذا وَلَدَتِ الْحامِلُ تَوْأمَيْنِ، فسُمِعَ الاسْتِهلالُ من أحَدِهما، ثمَّ سُمِعَ مَرَّةً أُخَرى، فلم يُدْرَ أهو مِن الأَوَّلِ، أو من الثّانى، فيَحْتَمِلُ أنْ يَثْبُتَ الميراثُ لِمَنْ عُلِمَ اسْتِهْلالُه دونَ مَن شَكَكْنا فيه؛ لأنَّ الأصْلَ عَدَمُ اسْتِهلالِه. فعلى هذا الاحْتمالِ، إنْ عُلِمَ المُسْتَهِلُّ بِعَيْنِه، فهو الوارِثُ وَحْدَه، وإِنْ جُهِلَ عَيْنُه، كان كما لو استَهَلَّ واحِدٌ منهما لا بِعَيْنِه. وقال الفَرَضِيُّونَ: يُعْمَلُ على الأحْوالِ، فيُعْطَى كُلُّ وارثٍ الْيَقينَ، ويُوقَفُ الباقى.
ومن مسائِلِ ذلك: أُمٌّ حامِلٌ وأُخْتٌ لأبٍ وعَمٌّ، وَلَدَتِ الأُمُّ بنْتَيْنِ، فاسْتَهلَّتْ إحداهُما، ثمَّ سُمِعَ الإسْتِهلالُ مَرَّةً أُخرى، فلم يُدْرَ هل اسْتَهلَّتِ الأُخْرى، أو تَكَرَّرَ من واحِدَةٍ؟ فقيل: إنْ كان منهما جميعًا، فقد ماتَتا عن أرْبَعَةٍ من سِتَّةٍ، ولا يُعْلَمُ أوَّلُهما مَوْتًا، فَحُكْمُهما حُكْمُ الغَرْقَى، فَمن ذَهَبَ إلى أنَّه لا تُورَّثُ إحْداهما من الأُخْرَى، قال: قد خَلَّفتا أُمًّا وأُخْتًا وعَمًّا، فَتَصِحُّ من ثَمانِيَةَ عَشَرَ، وانْ كان الاسْتِهلالُ من واحِدَةٍ، فقد ماتَتْ عن ثَلَاثَةٍ من سِتَّةٍ، فتَصِحُّ من اثْنَى عَشَرَ، وبَيْنَهما مُوافَقَةٌ
