two-thirds of five thousand, and the daughter and the paternal uncle claim all of the remainder, so that is held among them until they settle. If a newborn is in the hands of two women and they both claim him, the physiognomist (al-qafah) is shown the child with them; if he joins him to one of them, he is joined to her and inherits from her, and she inherits from him, according to one of the narrations. If he joins him to both, or denies him from both, he is not joined to either of them. If evidence is established for each one of them, they contradict each other, and their evidence is not heard. This is the opinion of Abu Yusuf and al-Lu'lu'i. Abu Hanifa said: His lineage is established from both, and they both inherit from him as a mother would, just as he is joined to two men. Our view is that one of the two women is definitely lying, so [the evidence] is not heard, just as if it were known. It is a necessity of rejecting her evidence that both are rejected due to the lack of knowledge of the identity of the truthful one, and because this is impossible, so it is not established by evidence or otherwise, just as if the child were older than them both. If a woman has a boy with her, and two men claim him, each one asserting that he is his son from her, and she is his wife, but she denies them both, he is not joined to either. If she confirms one of them, he is joined to him, just as if he were an adult and they claimed him, and he confirmed one of them. If a boy is with a woman, and her husband says: "He is my son from other than you," and she says: "Rather, he is my son from you," he is joined to them both.
