724. hadíth

وَ رَوَى سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ دَاوُدَ اَلْمِنْقَرِيُّ عَنْ حَفْصِ بْنِ غِيَاثٍ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ جَعْفَرَ بْنَ مُحَمَّدٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنْ طَائِفَتَيْنِ مِنَ اَلْمُؤْمِنِينَ إِحْدَاهُمَا بَاغِيَةٌ وَ اَلْأُخْرَى عَادِلَةٌ اِقْتَتَلُوا فَقَتَلَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ اَلْعِرَاقِ أَبَاهُ أَوْ اِبْنَهُ أَوْ أَخَاهُ أَوْ حَمِيمَهُ وَ هُوَ مِنْ أَهْلِ اَلْبَغْيِ وَ هُوَ وَارِثُهُ هَلْ يَرِثُهُ قَالَ "نَعَمْ لِأَنَّهُ قَتَلَهُ بِحَقٍّ".

Sulayman ibn Dawud Al-Minqari narrated from Hafs ibn Ghiyath, who said: I asked Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (a.s) about two groups of believers - one of them being rebellious (baghiyah) and the other just (Adilah) - who fought each other. A man from the people of Iraq, belonging to the rebellious group, killed his father, son, brother, or close relative during the battle and was also his heir. I asked: "Does he inherit from him?" Imam (a.s) replied: "Yes, because he killed him rightfully."
