Qasim bin Muhammad reports that a maternal grandmother and a paternal grandmother came to Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him). One was a maternal grandmother and the other was a paternal grandmother. So Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) ordered that the maternal grandmother be given inheritance, but did not give an order for the paternal grandmother. Then Abdur Rahman bin Sahal, who belonged to Banu Haritha, said to him: "O Caliph of the Messenger! You have ordered her to be given (inheritance), but if she were to die, the deceased would not inherit from her." So Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) ordered that both of them be given (inheritance). (The narrator says:) That is, he ordered that the sixth share be given.
