Bequeathing One-Third

باب الْوَصِيَّةِ بِالثُّلُثِ ‏‏

Sahih Muslim 1628e
وَحَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، وَابْنُ، بَشَّارٍ قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ سِمَاكٍ، بِهَذَا الإِسْنَادِ نَحْوَهُ ‏.‏ وَلَمْ يَذْكُرْ فَكَانَ بَعْدُ الثُّلُثُ جَائِزًا ‏.‏
This hadith has been narrated on the authority of Simak with the same chain of transmitters. But he did not mention:

" It was then that one-third became permissible."
