Hadith 2899
Narrated Al-Miqdam al-Kindi: The Prophet ﷺ said: If anyone leaves a debt or a helpless family I shall be responsible-and sometimes the narrator said: Allah and His Messenger will be responsible-but if anyone leaves property, it goes to his heirs. I am the heirs of him who has none, paying blood-wit for him and inheriting from him; and a maternal uncle is the heir of him who has none, paying blood-wit for him and inheriting from him.

حَدَّثَنَا

أَبِي عَامِرٍ الْهَوْزَنِيِّ ، عَنْ
الْمِقْدَامِ الْكِنْدِيِّ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " أَنَا أَوْلَى بِكُلِّ مُؤْمِنٍ مِنْ نَفْسِهِ ، فَمَنْ تَرَكَ دَيْنًا أَوْ ضَيْعَةً فَإِلَيَّ ، وَمَنْ تَرَكَ مَالًا فَلِوَرَثَتِهِ وَأَنَا مَوْلَى مَنْ لَا مَوْلَى لَهُ أَرِثُ مَالَهُ وَأَفُكُّ عَانَهُ ، وَالْخَالُ مَوْلَى مَنْ لَا مَوْلَى لَهُ يَرِثُ مَالَهُ وَيَفُكُّ عَانَهُ " ، قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد ، رَوَاهُ الزُّبَيْدِيُّ ، عَنْ رَاشِدِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ ، عَنْ ابْنِ عَائِذٍ ، عَنْ الْمِقْدَامِ ، وَرَوَاهُ مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ صَالِحٍ ، عَنْ رَاشِدٍ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ الْمِقْدَامَ ، قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد : يَقُولُ الضَّيْعَةُ مَعْنَاهُ عِيَالٌ .
Narrated Al-Miqdam al-Kindi: The Prophet ﷺ said: I am nearer to every believer than himself, so if anyone leaves a debt or a helpless family, I shall be responsible, but if anyone leaves property, it goes to his heirs. I am patron of him who has none, inheriting his property and freeing him from his liabilities. A maternal uncle is patron of him who has none, inheriting his property and freeing him from his liabilities. Abu Dawud said: da'iah means dependants or helpless family. Abu Dawud said: This tradition has been transmitted by al-Zubaidi from Rashid bin Saad from Ibn 'A'idh on the authority of al-Miqdam. It has also been transmitted by Muawiyah bin Salih from Rashid who said: I heard al-Miqdam (say).
Hadith 2901
Narrated Al-Miqdam: I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: I am the heirs of Him who has none, freeing him from his liabilities, and inheriting what he possesses. A maternal uncle is the heir of Him who has none, freeing him from his liabilities, and inheriting his property.

Narrated Aishah, Ummul Muminin: A client of the Prophet ﷺ died and left some property, but he left no child or relative. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Give what he has left to a man belonging to his village. Abu Dawud said: The tradition of Sufyan is more perfect. Musaddad said: Thereupon the Prophet ﷺ said: Is there anyone belonging to his land ? They replied: Yes. He said: Then give him what he has left.

Narrated Buraydah ibn al-Hasib: A man came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said: I have property left by a man of Azd. I do not find any man of Azd to give it to him. He said: Go and look for man of Azd for a year. He then came to him after one year and said: Messenger of Allah, I did not find any man of Azd to give it to him. He said: Look for a man of Khuzaah whom you meet first and give it to him. When he turned away, he said; Call the man to me. When he came to him, he said: Look for the leading man of Khuzaah and give it to him.
