Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 33089 — A man who bequeaths the freeing

Hisham bin Hassan said: The first part of the will of Muhammad bin Sirin (may Allah have mercy on him) was this: This is the will made by Muhammad bin Abi Amrah. I bear witness that there is no god but Allah Almighty and that Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) is the servant of Allah and His Messenger. I enjoin my sons and the people of my household to fear Allah Almighty, to live with one another in a good way, and, if they are believers, to obey Allah and His Messenger. And I enjoin them with what Sayyiduna Ibrahim (peace be upon him) enjoined his sons, and Sayyiduna Ya'qub (peace be upon him) likewise: "O my sons! Indeed Allah Almighty has chosen the religion for you, so let death not come to you except in the state that you are Muslims." [Al-Baqarah: 132] And he said that this was also the first part of the will of Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him). The Book of Bequests is completed, with the praise of Allah and His help.
