Hadith 988
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى ، قَالَ : ثنا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ ، قَالَ : أنا مَعْمَرٌ ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا ، قَالَ : إِنَّمَا الْعُمْرَى الَّتِي أَجَازَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ يَقُولَ : " هِيَ لَكَ وَلِعَقِبِكَ ، فَأَمَّا إِذَا قَالَ : هِيَ لَكَ مَا عِشْتَ ، فَإِنَّهَا تَرْجِعُ إِلَى صَاحِبِهَا " ، قَالَ مَعْمَرٌ : وَكَانَ الزُّهْرِيُّ يُفْتِي بِهِ .
Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with both of them) narrates that the ‘Umra which the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) declared permissible is that (the giver) says: “This is for you and your heirs.” But if he says: “This thing is yours as long as you are alive,” then it will return to the owner. Mu’ammar says that this was also the fatwa of Zuhri.
