Sunan Sa'id bin Mansur 1409 — on those who drown or are burned
سَعِيدٌ قَالَ: نا هُشَيْمٌ، قَالَ: أنا ابْنُ أَبِي لَيْلَى، عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ، قَالَ: وَقَعَ الطَّاعُونُ بِالشَّامِ عَامَ عَمَوَاسَ فَجَعَلَ أَهْلُ الْبَيْتِ يَمُوتُونَ مِنْ آخِرِهِمْ، فَكَتَبَ فِي ذَلِكَ إِلَى عُمَرَ، فَكَتَبَ عُمَرُ أَنْ وَرِّثُوا بَعْضَهُمْ مِنْ بَعْضٍ "
Ash-Sha'bi, may Allah have mercy on him, said: The plague spread in Syria in the year of Amwas, so the people of entire households began to die one after another. Regarding this, it was written to Sayyiduna Umar, may Allah be pleased with him, so he wrote: "Make some the heirs of others."
