This is a strange hadith; we do not know it from the hadith of Jabir except through the narration of Ibn Abi Layla.

16 - Chapter: What Has Been Reported Regarding the Invalidation of the Inheritance of the Killer

2242 - Qutaybah narrated to us, he said: Al-Layth narrated to us, from Ishaq ibn Abdullah, from al-Zuhri, from Humayd ibn Abd al-Rahman, from Abu Hurayrah, from the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, who said: "The killer does not inherit."

--------------------------------------------
= Ibn Abi Layla.

Al-Tabarani also narrated it in "Al-Awsat" (8461) via the route of Abd al-Rahman ibn al-Mubarak, from Husayn ibn Numayr, with this chain of transmission.

It is supported by the hadith of Abdullah ibn Amr ibn al-As with this wording, as found in Abu Dawud (2911), Ibn Majah (2731), and it is in "Musnad Ahmad" (6664); see the rest of its supporting witnesses there.

Al-Nasa'i also narrated it in "Al-Kubra" (6389) via the route of Muhammad ibn Amr al-Yafi'i, from Ibn Jurayj, from Abu al-Zubayr, from Jabir, raised to the Prophet with the wording: "A Muslim does not inherit from a Christian unless he is his slave or his slave-girl." We say: Although al-Yafi'i is weak, Imam Abu Hanifah followed him in his "Musnad" — as explained by Mulla Ali al-Qari — p. 167, except that there remains in it the ambiguity of Abu al-Zubayr's transmission from Jabir. Moreover, it is authentically established from Jabir as a stopped narration (mawquf) in Abd al-Razzaq (9865) and (19310), and via his route al-Daraqutni 4/75, and al-Bayhaqi 6/218, from Ibn Jurayj: Abu al-Zubayr informed me that he heard Jabir ibn Abdullah with it, and al-Daraqutni said after it: This is the preserved version.

Al-Darimi also narrated it (2993) and (2994), and al-Daraqutni 4/75 via the route of Sharik, from al-Ash'ath, from al-Hasan, from Jabir, raised to the Prophet with wording similar to that of Abu al-Zubayr from Jabir, and in it there is the ambiguity of al-Hasan al-Basri's transmission, and Sharik — who is al-Nakha'i — is weak with poor memory.

(1) A good (hasan) hadith, but this chain of transmission is very weak because of Ishaq ibn Abdullah ibn =
