باب الْوَصِيَّةِ بِالثُّلُثِ:Chapter on bequeathing a third
Hadith 3227
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْوَلِيدِ الطَّيَالِسِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا هَمَّامٌ، حَدَّثَنَا قَتَادَةُ، عَنْ يُونُسَ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ: أَنّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ دَخَلَ عَلَيْهِ وَهُوَ بِمَكَّةَ، وَلَيْسَ لَهُ إِلَّا ابْنَةٌ، فَقُلْتُ لَهُ: "إِنَّهُ لَيْسَ لِي إِلَّا ابْنَةٌ وَاحِدَةٌ، فَأُوصِي بِمَالِي كُلِّهِ ؟ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: لَا، قُلْتُ: فَأُوصِي بِالنِّصْفِ ؟ فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: لَا، قَالَ: فَأُوصِي بِالثُّلُثِ ؟ قَالَ: فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: الثُّلُثُ، وَالثُّلُثُ كَثِيرٌ".
Muhammad bin Sa’d (Ibn Abi Waqqas) narrated from his father that the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) came to him in Makkah, and he had only one daughter. Sayyiduna Sa’d (bin Abi Waqqas, may Allah be pleased with him) said: I said to you, O Messenger of Allah, I have only one daughter, shall I bequeath all my wealth (for charitable purposes)? The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: “No.” I said: Then shall I bequeath half of my wealth? The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: “No.” He said: Then shall I bequeath a third? Sayyiduna Sa’d (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: “Yes, a third, though a third is still much.”
