Narrated Abdullah ibn Masud: Abdullah ibn Utbah ibn Masud said: Abdullah ibn Masud was informed of this story of a man. The people continued to visit him for a month or visited him many times (the narrator was not sure). He said: In this matter I hold the opinion that she should receive the type of dower given to women of her class with no diminution or excess, observe the waiting period ('iddah) and have her share of inheritance. If it is erroneous, that is from me and from Satan. Allah and His Messenger are free from its responsibility. Some people from Ashja got up; among them were al-Jarrah and Abu Sinan. They said: Ibn Masud, we bear witness that the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم gave a decision for us regarding Birwa, daughter of Washiq, to the same effect as the decision you have given. Her husband was Hilal ibn Murrah al-Ashjai. Thereupon Abdullah ibn Masud was very pleased when his decision agreed with the decision of the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم.
