Malik related to me from Abdullah ibn Abi Bakr ibn Muhammad ibn Amr ibn Hazm from Abd al-Malik ibn Abi Bakr ibn Abd ar-Rahman ibn al- Harith ibn Hisham that his father told him that al-Asi ibn Hisham had died and left three sons, two by one wife and one by another wife. One of the two with the same mother died and left property and mawali. His full brother inherited his property and the wala' of his mawali. Then he also died, and left as heirs his son and his paternal half brother. His son said, "I obtain what my father inherited of property and the wala' of the mawali." His brother said, "It is not like that. You obtain the property. As for the wala' of the mawali, it is not so. Do you think that had it been my first brother who died today, I would not have inherited from him?" They argued and went to Uthman ibn Affan. He gave a judgement that the brother had the wala' of the mawali

حدثني مالك، عن عبد الله بن ابي بكر بن محمد بن عمرو بن حزم، عن عبد الملك بن ابي بكر بن عبد الرحمن بن الحارث بن هشام، عن ابيه، انه اخبره ان العاصي بن هشام هلك وترك بنين له ثلاثة اثنان لام ورجل لعلة فهلك احد اللذين لام وترك مالا وموالي فورثه اخوه لابيه وامه ماله وولاءه مواليه ثم هلك الذي ورث المال وولاء الموالي وترك ابنه واخاه لابيه فقال ابنه قد احرزت ما كان ابي احرز من المال وولاء الموالي وقال اخوه ليس كذلك انما احرزت المال واما ولاء الموالي فلا ارايت لو هلك اخي اليوم الست ارثه انا فاختصما الى عثمان بن عفان فقضى لاخيه بولاء الموالي
