أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ يَحْيَی بْنِ الْوَزِيرِ بْنِ سُلَيْمَانَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ ابْنَ وَهْبٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي يُونُسُ وَعَمْرُو بْنُ الْحَارِثِ عَنْ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ مَا حَقُّ امْرِئٍ مُسْلِمٍ لَهُ شَيْئٌ يُوصَی فِيهِ فَيَبِيتُ ثَلَاثَ لَيَالٍ إِلَّا وَوَصِيَّتُهُ عِنْدَهُ مَکْتُوبَةٌ
سنن نسائی · Hadith 3654
It was narrated from Salim bin ‘Abdullah, from his father, that the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم said: “It is not right for a Muslim who has anything concerning which a will should be made, to abide for more than three nights without having a written will with him.” (Sahih)
