حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُوسَى الْمِصِّيصِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ قُدَامَةَ الْجَوْهَرِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَاحِدِ بْنُ وَاصِلٍ أَبُو عُبَيْدَةَ الْحَدَّادُ ، حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمُ بْنُ حَيَّانَ ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ دِينَارٍ ، عَنْ طَاوُسٍ ، عَنْ حُجْرٍ الْمَدَرِيِّ ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ : "الرُّقْبَى وَالْعُمْرَى سَبِيلُهُمَا سَبِيلُ الْمِيرَاثِ "، لَمْ يَرْوِهِ عَنْ سُلَيْمٍ ، إِلا أَبُو عُبَيْدَةَ ، تَفَرَّدَ بِهِ ابْنُ قُدَامَةَ

Explanation & Benefits
Maulana Ataullah Sajid
Benefits and Issues:
Whatever is given to someone for a lifetime will not return to the giver after the recipient’s death; rather, just as the rest of the deceased’s estate is distributed among his heirs, so too will the thing received in this manner be included in the inheritance and divided among his heirs. This is because, according to the Shariah, this item falls under the ruling of a gift (hiba), and therefore it will be considered the lawful property of the recipient.

That is, in the event of the death of the one to whom the ‘umra was given, it will go to his heirs; it will not return to the giver.
