Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah

It is narrated from Hazrat Marrah bin Shurahbeel that Hazrat Suhaib bought a house from Hazrat Uthman, and stipulated the condition of residing in it for such and such a period.

Hazrat Tamim Dari sold his house and set the condition that he would live in it for the rest of his life, and said that his example is like that of the mother of Hazrat Musa (peace be upon him); her son was returned to her for nursing, and she was also given a wage for nursing him.

It is narrated from Hazrat Aamir that two women sold their house, and both stipulated the condition of living in it for their entire lives. Hazrat Aamir said: Both of them will live in it as long as they are alive.

Hazrat Waki’ said that Hazrat Ibn Abi Layla used to consider this permissible before us. But other individuals besides Ibn Abi Layla used to reject it.

Hazrat Shurayh says that every Muslim is bound by his condition.
