Musnad of Sa'd bin Abi Waqqas
Musnad Abi Ya'la 781 — We were with Humayd bin Abd al-Rahman
حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَوْنٍ ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ سَعِيدٍ قَالَ : كُنَّا مَعَ حُمَيْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ فِي سُوقِ الرَّقِيقِ ، فَقَامَ مِنْ عِنْدَنَا ، ثُمَّ رَجَعَ إِلَيْنَا ، فَقَالَ : هَذَا آخِرُ ثَلَاثَةٍ مِنْ بَنِي سَعْدٍ ، كُلِّهِمْ قَدْ حَدَّثَنِي هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ ، قَالَ : مَرِضَ سَعْدٌ بِمَكَّةَ ، فَأَتَاهُ النَّبِيُّ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - يَعُودُهُ ، فَقَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، قَدْ رَهِبْتُ أَنْ أَمُوتَ بِالْأَرْضِ كَمَا مَاتَ سَعْدُ بْنُ خَوْلَةَ ، فَادْعُ اللهَ أَنْ يَشْفِيَنِي ، فَقَالَ : اللَّهُمَّ اشْفِ سَعْدًا ، ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ قَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، وَلِي مَالٌ كَثِيرٌ وَلَيْسَ لِي وَارِثٌ إِلَّا كَلَالَةً ، أَفَأُوصِي بِنِصْفِ مَالِي ؟ قَالَ : « لَا » قَالَ : فَأُوصِي بِثُلُثِ مَالِي ؟ قَالَ : الثُّلُثُ كَبِيرٌ - أَوْ : كَثِيرٌ - إِنَّ صَدَقَتَكَ مِنْ مَالِكَ لَكَ صَدَقَةٌ ، وَإِنَّ أَكْلَ امْرَأَتِكَ مِنْ طَعَامِكَ صَدَقَةٌ ، وَإِنَّ نَفَقَتَكَ عَلَى أَهْلِكَ صَدَقَةٌ ، وَإِنَّكَ أَنْ تَدَعَ أَهْلَكَ بَعْدَكَ بِعَيْشٍ - أَوْ قَالَ : بِغِنًى - خَيْرٌ مِنْ أَنْ يَتَكَفَّفُوا .
Amr bin Sa'id (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates: We were with Humayd bin Abd al-Rahman (may Allah have mercy on him) in the slave market. He got up from us, then came back to us and said: "This is the last of three of the sons of Sayyiduna Sa'd (may Allah be pleased with him), all of whom narrated this hadith to me: Sayyiduna Sa'd (may Allah be pleased with him) fell ill in Makkah, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came to visit him. He said: 'O Messenger of Allah, I fear that I will die in this land as Sa'd bin Khawlah died; so supplicate Allah to cure me.' He (peace and blessings be upon him) said three times: 'Allahumma-shfi Sa'dan' (O Allah, cure Sa'd). He said: 'O Messenger of Allah, I have a great deal of wealth and my only heirs are kalalah (distant relatives); shall I bequeath half of my wealth?' He said: 'No.' He said: 'Then a third of my wealth?' He said: 'A third is big (or: a lot). Your giving charity from your wealth is charity for you, your wife's eating from your food is charity, and your spending on your family is charity; and that you leave your family after you in a good living (or he said: in wealth) is better than that they should stretch out their hands to people.'"
