Survivorship grants (ruqba) and how they are treated
Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 24112 — Survivorship grants (ruqba) and how
٢٤١١٢ - حدثنا أبو بكر قال: حدثنا وكيع قال: حدثنا سعيد بن حسان قال: سمعت مجاهدًا يقول: (من أُعمر) (١) عمرى فهي له ولورثته من بعده، لا ترجع إلى الذي أعمرها، والرقبى مثلها، قلت لمجاهد: ما الرقبى؟ قال: قول الرجل: هي (للآخر) (٢) مني ومنك.
Mujahid (may Allah have mercy on him) said: Whoever receives a house by way of umra, it will be his during his life and will pass to his heirs after his death. Such a house will not return to the one who gave it as umra, and ruqba is like it. I asked Mujahid (may Allah have mercy on him) what ruqba means. He replied: Ruqba is when a man says: This house will belong to whichever of us lives longer.
