أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاذُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ ، قَالَ : سَأَلَنِي سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ ، عَنِ الْعُمْرَى ، فَقُلْتُ : حَدَّثَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سِيرِينَ ، عَنْ شُرَيْحٍ ، قَالَ : " قَضَى نَبِيُّ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّ الْعُمْرَى جَائِزَةٌ " . (حديث موقوف) (حديث مرفوع) قَالَ قَتَادَةُ : قُلْتُ : حَدَّثَنِي النَّضْرُ بْنُ أَنَسٍ ، عَنْ بَشِيرِ بْنِ نَهِيكٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، أَنَّ نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ : " الْعُمْرَى جَائِزَةٌ " ، قَالَ قَتَادَةُ : وَقُلْتُ كَانَ الْحَسَنُ يَقُولُ : " الْعُمْرَى جَائِزَةٌ " ، قَالَ قَتَادَةُ : فَقَالَ الزُّهْرِيُّ : " إِنَّمَا الْعُمْرَى إِذَا أُعْمِرَ وَعَقِبُهُ مِنْ بَعْدِهِ فَإِذَا لَمْ يَجْعَلْ عَقِبَهُ مِنْ بَعْدِهِ كَانَ لِلَّذِي يَجْعَلُ شَرْطَهُ " . (حديث موقوف) (حديث مرفوع) قَالَ قَتَادَةُ : فَسُئِلَ عَطَاءُ بْنُ أَبِي رَبَاحٍ ، فَقَالَ : حَدَّثَنِي جَابِرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ : " الْعُمْرَى جَائِزَةٌ " , قَالَ قَتَادَةُ : فَقَالَ الزُّهْرِيُّ : " كَانَ الْخُلَفَاءُ لَا يَقْضُونَ بِهَذَا " ، قَالَ عَطَاءٌ : قَضَى بِهَا عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ بْنُ مَرْوَانَ .
´It was narrated that Qatadah said:` "Sulaiman bin Hisham asked me about a lifelong gift. I said: 'Muhammad bin Sirin narrated that Shuraih said: "The Prophet of Allah ruled that a lifelong gift is permissible."'" Qatadah said: "I said: 'And An-Nadr bin Anas narrated to me, from Bashir bin Nahik, from Abu Hurairah, that the Prophet of Allah said: "A lifelong gift is permissible."'" Qatadah said: "I said: 'Al-Hasan used to say: "A lifelong gift is permissible."'" Qatadah said: "Az-Zuhri said: 'A lifelong gift is when it is stipulated that it is for the one to whom it is given and his descendants, but if his descendants were not mentioned then the condition is valid (and it reverts to the one who gave it).'" Qatadah said: "So 'Ata' bin Abi Rabah was asked, and he said: 'Jabir bin Abdullah narrated to me that Allah's Messenger said: "Umra is permissible."'" Qatadah said: "Az-Zuhri said: 'The Caliphs (Khulafa') did not rule according to this.'" 'Ata' said: "Abdul-Malik bin Marwan ruled according to this."

Explanation & Benefits
Hafiz Muhammad Ameen
All these statements have been mentioned by Hazrat Qatadah for the clarification of this issue. The fact that a caliph did not judge according to an authentic hadith does not weaken this hadith; however, from these statements it becomes evident that the issue is one of difference. But the correct position is that which is established from authentic ahadith, as has already been explained in detail.

Benefits and Issues:
➊ The Arabs would sometimes, while doing a favor for someone, say: “I permit you to live in this house of mine for your entire life.” The meaning of this was that after your death, this house would return to me or my heirs. This is called ‘umra’.
➋ The Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) included ‘umra’ under the general ruling of gift (hibah). Now, once something has been given, it belongs to the recipient. It is not permissible to stipulate the condition that after your death it will return to me.
