أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو نَصْرِ بْنُ قَتَادَةَ، أنبأ أَبُو عَمْرِو بْنُ نُجَيْدٍ، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، ثنا ابْنُ بُكَيْرٍ، ثنا مَالِكٌ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، أَنَّ عَمْرَو بْنَ سُلَيْمٍ الزُّرَقِيَّ، أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّهُ قِيلَ لِعُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ: إِنَّ هَهُنَا غُلَامًا يَفَاعًا لَمْ يَحْتَلِمْ مِنْ غَسَّانَ وَوَارِثُهُ بِالشَّامِ وَهُوَ ذُو مَالٍ، وَلَيْسَ لَهُ هَهُنَا إِلَّا ابْنَةُ عَمٍّ لَهُ، فَقَالَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ: " فَلْيُوصِ لَهَا "، فَأَوْصَى لَهَا بِمَالٍ يُقَالُ لَهُ بِئْرُ جُشَمٍ، قَالَ عَمْرُو بْنُ سُلَيْمٍ: فَبِعْتُ ذَلِكَ الْمَالَ بِثَلَاثِينَ أَلْفًا، وَابْنَةُ عَمِّهِ الَّتِي أَوْصَى لَهَا هِيَ أُمُّ عَمْرِو بْنُ سُلَيْمٍ.
Amr bin Sulaym al-Zuraqi (may Allah have mercy on him) reported that it was said to Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him): "There is a boy here from Ghassan, near puberty, who has not yet reached puberty; his heir is in Syria, he is wealthy, and he has no one here except a cousin (the daughter of his paternal uncle)." Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "Then let him make a bequest for her." So he bequeathed to her a property called Bi'r Jusham. Amr bin Sulaym (may Allah have mercy on him) says: I sold that property for thirty thousand. His cousin, for whom he had made the bequest, was the mother of Amr bin Sulaym.
وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو نَصْرٍ، أنبأ أَبُو عَمْرٍو، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، ثنا ابْنُ بُكَيْرٍ، ثنا مَالِكٌ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ حَزْمٍ، أَنَّ غُلَامًا مِنْ غَسَّانَ حَضَرَتْهُ الْوَفَاةُ بِالْمَدِينَةِ وَوَارِثُهُ بِالشَّامِ، فَذُكِرَ ذَلِكَ لِعُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ، فَقِيلَ لَهُ: إِنَّ فُلَانًا يَمُوتُ، أَفَيُوصِي؟ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ: " نَعَمْ فَلْيُوصِ "، قَالَ أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ: وَكَانَ الْغُلَامُ ابْنَ عَشْرِ سِنِينَ، أَوِ اثْنَتَيْ عَشْرَةَ سَنَةً، فَأَوْصَى بِمَالٍ لَهُ يُقَالُ لَهُ: بِئْرُ جُشَمٍ، فَبَاعَهَا أَهْلُهَا بِثَلَاثِينَ أَلْفَ دِرْهَمٍ.
Abu Bakr bin Muhammad bin Amr bin Hazm (may Allah have mercy on him) says that there was a boy from Ghassan; the time of his death came in Madinah, while his heirs were in Syria. This news reached Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him). It was said: "So-and-so is dying; may he make a bequest?" Sayyiduna Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "Let him make a bequest." Abu Bakr bin Muhammad says that the boy was 10 or 12 years old. He bequeathed a property called Bi'r Jusham, and his heirs sold it for 30,000 dirhams.
