"A child does not inherit until it cries out at birth, and its crying out is defined as crying, sneezing, or weeping." Narrated by Ibn Mājah (2751) and al-Ṭabarānī in "al-Awsaṭ" (1/153/2) from al-ʿAbbās ibn al-Walīd al-Khallāl al-Dimashqī, who reported from Marwān ibn Muḥammad al-Ṭāṭarī, who reported from Sulaymān ibn Bilāl, from Yaḥyá ibn Saʿīd, from Saʿīd ibn al-Musayyib, from Jābir ibn ʿAbd Allāh and al-Miswar ibn Makhramah in a marfūʿ form. Al-Ṭabarānī said: "No one narrated it from Yaḥyá except Sulaymān, and Marwān was the only one to report it." I say: He is trustworthy, and so are the rest of the narrators, thus the ḥadīth is authentic. As for the statement of al-Haythamī (4/225): "Narrated by al-Ṭabarānī in 'al-Awsaṭ' and 'al-Kabīr', and in it is al-ʿAbbās ibn al-Walīd al-Khallāl, who was deemed trustworthy by Abū Mashar and Marwān ibn Muḥammad. Abū Dāwūd said, 'I do not narrate from him,' and the rest of the men are those of the authentic collections." There is a consideration from two aspects: First, Marwān is not among the narrators of the authentic collections. Second, the statement of Abū Dāwūd about him is not mentioned by al-Ḥāfiẓ in "al-Tahdhīb," but rather it is narrated from al-Ājurī that he said: "I wrote from him and he was knowledgeable in men and reports." Therefore, he said about him in "Taqrīb al-Tahdhīb" that he is "truthful," so I do not know whether this is an error from al-Haythamī or a shortcoming from al-Ḥāfiẓ for not mentioning it. Furthermore, the inclusion of this ḥadīth by al-Haythamī in his book is against his condition, as Ibn Mājah included it, so perhaps he did not recall that when he included it. And the ḥadīth has a corroborating narration with the wording: "If the newborn cries out, it inherits."
