Survivorship grants (ruqba) and how they are treated
Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 24108 — Survivorship grants (ruqba) and how
٢٤١٠٨ - حدثنا أبو بكر قال: حدثنا وكيع قال: حدثنا (يزيد) (١) بن زياد (بن) (٢) أبي الجعد عن حبيب بن أبي ثابت عن ابن عمر قال: نهى رسول اللَّه ﷺ عن الرقبى، (و) (٣) قال: "من أرقب رقبى فهي له" (٤).
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade ruqba and said: "Whoever receives a house by way of ruqba, it belongs to him." (Ruqba is when a person says to another: I have gifted this house to you; if you die before me it will return to me, and if I die before you it will be yours.)
