Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said: "A maternal uncle is heir of him who has no inheritor." [Ahmad and al-Arba'a reported it excluding at-Tirmidhi. Abu Zur'a ar-Razi graded it Hasan (good), and al-Hakim and Ibn Hibban graded it Sahih (authentic).
وَعَنْ اَلْمِقْدَامِ بْنِ مَعْدِي كَرِبَ - رضى الله عنه - قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ - صلى الله عليه وسلم -{ اَلْخَالُ وَارِثُ مَنْ لَا وَارِثَ لَهُ } أَخْرَجَهُ أَحْمَدُ , وَالْأَرْبَعَةُ سِوَى اَلتِّرْمِذِيِّ , وَحَسَّنَهُ أَبُو زُرْعَةَ اَلرَّازِيُّ , وَصَحَّحَهُ اِبْنُ حِبَّانَ , وَالْحَاكِمُ [1] .
