حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رَافِعٍ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ عَنْ هَمَّامِ بْنِ مُنَبِّهٍ قَالَ هَذَا مَا حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَذَکَرَ أَحَادِيثَ مِنْهَا وَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَا أَوْلَی النَّاسِ بِالْمُؤْمِنِينَ فِي کِتَابِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ فَأَيُّکُمْ مَا تَرَکَ دَيْنًا أَوْ ضَيْعَةً فَادْعُونِي فَأَنَا وَلِيُّهُ وَأَيُّکُمْ مَا تَرَکَ مَالًا فَلْيُؤْثَرْ بِمَالِهِ عَصَبَتُهُ مَنْ کَانَ
صحیح مسلم · Hadith 4160
Abn Huraira (Allah be pleased with him) reported Allah's Apostle ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) having said this: By Him in Whose Hand is the life of Muhammad, there is no believer on the earth with whom I am not the nearest among all the people. He who amongst you (dies) and leaves a debt, I am there to pay it, and he who amongst you (dies) leaving behind children I am there to look after them. And he who amongst You leaves behind property, that is for the inheritor whoever he is.
