(69) باب نَسْخِ مَتَاعِ الْمُتَوَفَّى عَنْهَا بِمَا فُرِضَ لَهَا مِنَ الْمِيرَاثِ
It was narrated from Ibn 'Abbas, with regard to Allah's saying:
"And those of you who die and leave behind wives should bequeath for their wives a year's maintenance and residence without turning them out." This was abrogated by the Verse on inheritance, which allocated to her one-quarter or one-eighth. And the appointed time ('Iddah) of one year was abrogated and replaced with the ('Iddah) term of four months and ten days. (AR)
