Chapter: Bequest of a minor
Sunan Sa'id bin Mansur 1614 — Bequest of a minor
سَعِيدٌ قَالَ: نا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ، أَنَّ صَفِيَّةَ بِنْتَ حُيَيٍّ «بَاعَتْ حُجْرَتَهَا مِنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بِمِائَةِ أَلْفٍ، وَكَانَ لَهَا أَخٌ يَهُودِيٌّ، فَعَرَضَتْ عَلَيْهِ أَنْ يُسْلِمَ فَيَرِثَ، فَأَبَى فَأَوْصَتْ لَهُ بِثُلُثِ الْمِائَةِ»
Ikrimah (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates: Safiyyah bint Huyayy (may Allah be pleased with her) sold her residence in Muawiyah for one hundred thousand. She had a Jewish brother; she invited him to Islam so that he could become her heir, but he refused, so she bequeathed one third of the wealth to him.
