Two sons, and he left two thousand dirhams, so they divided the two thousand dirhams, and one of the two sons was absent, then a man came, and he was entitled to a thousand from the dead. A dirham, he said: “He takes everything that is in the hand of this witness, and it is said to him: Follow your absent brother, and take half of what is in his hand.”
