4. Ibn Mahbub has narrated from ‘Abd Allah ibn Sinan who has narrated the following
“I once heard abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), saying, ‘The testimony of a female nurse about the crying of a newborn at the time of birth is effective for one-fourth of the legacy proportionate to the testimony of one woman.’ I then asked, ‘What happens if they are two women?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘It is effective for one-half of the legacy.’”
