It was narrated from Masruq that:
Abdullah was asked about a man who married a woman and died without having consummated the marriage with her, nor stipulating the dowry. Abdullah said: “The dowry is hers, and the inheritance id hers and she has to observe the waiting period.” Ma'qil bin Sinan Al-Ashja'I said: “I saw the Messenger of Allah pass a similar ruling concerning Birwa' bint Washiq.” (Sahih)Another chain from 'Alqamah, from Abdullah, with similar wording.
