عن سعيد بن المسيب ان عمر بن الخطاب رضي الله عنه قال ما ارى الدية إلا للعصبة لانهم يعقلون عنه فهل سمع احد منكم من رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم في ذلك شيئا فقام الضحاك بن سفيان الكلابي وكان استعمله رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم على الاعراب كتب إلي رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم ان اورث امراة اشيم الضبابي من دية زوجها فاخذ بذلك عمر بن الخطاب
It is narrated from Saeed bin Musayyib that Sayyiduna Umar bin Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) said: My opinion is that the blood money should be given only to the 'Asabah (male agnates), because they are the ones who pay the blood money. Has any one of you heard anything from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) regarding this? Sayyiduna Dahiak bin Sufyan Kalabi (may Allah be pleased with him)—the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) had appointed him as the governor over the Bedouin people—stood up and said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) sent me this written order that I should make the wife of Ashyam Dubabi an heir from her husband's blood money.

(وعنه من طريق ثان) ان عمر قال الدية للعاقلة ولا ترث المراة من دية زوجها حتى اخبره الضحاك بن سفيان الكلابي ان رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم كتب إلي ان اورث امراة اشيم الضبابي من دية زوجها فرجع عمر عن قوله
(Second chain) Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The blood money will be distributed among the male agnates, and the wife will not inherit any share from her husband's blood money. However, when Sayyiduna Dahiak bin Sufyan Kalabi (may Allah be pleased with him) informed him that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) had sent me a written order that I should make the wife of Ashyam Dhibabi an heir to his blood money, then Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) retracted his opinion.

عن عبادة بن الصامت رضي الله عنه ان النبي صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم قضى لحمل بن مالك الهذلي بميراثه عن امراته التي قتلتها الاخرى وقضى في الجنين المقتول بغرة عبد او امة قال فورثها بعلها وبنوها قال وكان له من امراتيه كلتيهما ولد الحديث
Narrated from Sayyiduna ‘Ubada bin Samit (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) made Sayyiduna Haml bin Malik Huzali (may Allah be pleased with him) an heir to his wife, who had been killed by his other wife, from the blood money (diyah) of the murdered wife. And the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) ruled that, for killing the unborn child in the womb, a slave man or woman should be given. Thus, the husband of the murdered woman and her sons became her heirs. Sayyiduna Haml (may Allah be pleased with him) had children from both wives. Al-Hadith.
