It was
narrated from Miqdam Abu Karimah, a man from Sham who was one
of the
Companions of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), that the Messenger
of
Allah (ﷺ) said:
“Whoever leaves behind wealth, it is for his
heirs. Whoever leaves behind poor dependents and a debt, it is for us
to take care of – or he said: ‘It is for Allah and His Messenger
(to
take care of) – I am the heir of the one who has no heir, I
will pay
the blood money on his behalf and inherit from him. And the
maternal
uncle is the heir of the one who has no heir, he pays blood
money on
his behalf and inherits from him.”

" مَنْ تَرَكَ مَالاً فَلِوَرَثَتِهِ وَمَنْ تَرَكَ كَلاًّ فَإِلَيْنَا - وَرُبَّمَا قَالَ فَإِلَى اللَّهِ وَإِلَى رَسُولِهِ - وَأَنَا وَارِثُ مَنْ لاَ وَارِثَ لَهُ أَعْقِلُ عَنْهُ وَأَرِثُهُ وَالْخَالُ وَارِثُ مَنْ لاَ وَارِثَ لَهُ يَعْقِلُ عَنْهُ وَيَرِثُهُ "
