عَنْ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ عَامِرٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّ غُلَامًا أَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ (وَفِي لَفْظٍ: سَأَلَ رَجُلٌ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ) فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ! إِنَّ أُمِّي مَاتَتْ وَتَرَكَتْ حُلِيًّا أَفَأَتَصَدَّقُ بِهِ عَنْهَا؟ قَالَ: ((أُمُّكَ أَمَرَتْكَ بِذَلِكَ؟))، قَالَ: لَا، قَالَ: ((فَأَمْسِكْ عَلَيْكَ حُلِيَّ أُمِّكَ))
Sayyiduna Uqbah bin Amir رضي الله عنه reports that a man came to the Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم and asked: My mother has passed away leaving behind some jewelry, so can I give this jewelry in charity on her behalf? The Prophet صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم said: Did your mother instruct you to do so? He replied: No. The Prophet صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم said: Then keep your mother’s jewelry with yourself (and do not give it in charity).
Brief Explanation
Benefits: … Since this man himself was in greater need, he was commanded to keep with himself the wealth of which he became the heir.
