حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَی بْنُ يَحْيَی وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رُمْحٍ قَالَا أَخْبَرَنَا اللَّيْثُ ح و حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ حَدَّثَنَا لَيْثٌ عَنْ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ أَنَّهُ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ مَنْ أَعْمَرَ رَجُلًا عُمْرَی لَهُ وَلِعَقِبِهِ فَقَدْ قَطَعَ قَوْلُهُ حَقَّهُ فِيهَا وَهِيَ لِمَنْ أُعْمِرَ وَلِعَقِبِهِ غَيْرَ أَنَّ يَحْيَی قَالَ فِي أَوَّلِ حَدِيثِهِ أَيُّمَا رَجُلٍ أُعْمِرَ عُمْرَی فَهِيَ لَهُ وَلِعَقِبِهِ
صحیح مسلم · Hadith 4189
Jabir b. 'Abdullah (Allah be pleased with them) reported Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) as saying: Any man who is given a gift for life, it belongs to him and his heirs. It belongs to the one to whom it is given, and does not go back to the one who gave it, because he has given it in such a way that it is subject to the rules of inheritance.
