حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مَرْوَانَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ الْعُثْمَانِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ أَبِي حَازِمٍ عَنْ الْعَلَائِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ أَنَّ رَجُلًا سَأَلَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ إِنَّ أَبِي مَاتَ وَتَرَکَ مَالًا وَلَمْ يُوصِ فَهَلْ يُکَفِّرُ عَنْهُ أَنْ تَصَدَّقْتُ عَنْهُ قَالَ نَعَمْ
ابن ماجہ · Hadith 2716
It was narrated from Abu Hurairah that a man asked the Messenger of Allah: "My father died and left behind wealth, but he did not make a will. Will it expiate for him if give charity on his behalf?" He said: "Yes."
