أَخْبَرَنَا عِمْرَانُ بْنُ بَکَّارٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْيَمَانِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا شُعَيْبٌ عَنْ الزُّهْرِيِّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو سَلَمَةَ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ أَنَّ جَابِرًا أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَضَی أَنَّهُ مَنْ أَعْمَرَ رَجُلًا عُمْرَی لَهُ وَلِعَقِبِهِ فَإِنَّهَا لِلَّذِي أُعْمِرَهَا يَرِثُهَا مِنْ صَاحِبِهَا الَّذِي أَعْطَاهَا مَا وَقَعَ مِنْ مَوَارِيثِ اللَّهِ وَحَقِّهِ
سنن نسائی · Hadith 3781
Shua’ib narrated from Az Zuhri, who said: “Abu Salamah bin ‘Abdur-Rahman narrated to me, that Jabir told him: ‘The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم ruled that whoever gives a lifelong gift to a man, it belongs to him and to his heirs. It belongs to the one to whom it was given, on the basis of ‘Umra. It will be inherited from its recipient according to Allah’s (injunctions on) inheritance and its rights.” (Sahih)
