باب مَا جَاءَ فِيمَنْ مَاتَ وَعَلَيْهِ صِيَامٌ صَامَ عَنْهُ وَلِيُّهُ
Chapter: If A Person Dies Owing Fasts, His Heir Should Fast On His Behalf.
Hadith 3310
حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ الْأَعْمَشَ ، ح وحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَلَاءِ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ ، الْمَعْنَى ، عَنْ مُسْلِمٍ الْبَطِينِ ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ : " أَنَّ امْرَأَةً جَاءَتْ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالَتْ : إِنَّهُ كَانَ عَلَى أُمِّهَا صَوْمُ شَهْرٍ ، أَفَأَقْضِيهِ عَنْهَا ؟ فَقَالَ : لَوْ كَانَ عَلَى أُمِّكِ دَيْنٌ ، أَكُنْتِ قَاضِيَتَهُ ؟ ، قَالَتْ : نَعَمْ ، قَالَ : فَدَيْنُ اللَّهِ أَحَقُّ أَنْ يُقْضَى " .
Narrated Ibn Abbas: A woman came to the Prophet ﷺ and said (to him) that one month's fast was due from her mother who had died. May I fulfill them on her behalf? He asked: Suppose some debt was due from your mother, would you pay it ? She replied: Yes. He said: So the debt due to Allah is the one which most deserves to be paid.
