Muwatta Malik #1138
Fara'id
The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.
وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي بَكْرِ بْنِ حَزْمٍ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَاهُ، كَثِيرًا يَقُولُ كَانَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ يَقُولُ عَجَبًا لِلْعَمَّةِ تُورَثُ وَلاَ تَرِثُ .
Yahya related to me from Malik that Muhammad ibn Abi Bakr ibn
Hazm heard his father say many times, ''Umar ibn al-Khattab used to
say, 'It is a wonder that the paternal aunt is inherited from and does
not inherit.' "
