ذِكْرُ الْخَبَرِ الدَّالِّ عَلَى أَنَّ الْمَاءَ الْمُسْتَعْمَلَ الْمُؤَدَّى بِهِ الْفَرْضُ مَرَّةً طَاهِرٌ جَائِزٌ أَنْ يُؤَدَّى بِهِ الْفَرْضُ أُخْرَى

[Machine] Jabir ibn Abdullah narrated: "The Prophet ﷺ came to visit me while I was sick and unaware of my surroundings. He performed ablution (wudu) and poured the water from his wudu onto me." I regained my consciousness and asked, "O Messenger of Allah, who will inherit from me?" The only relatives I have are my maternal uncles, and then the verse of inheritance was revealed."  

عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ يَقُولُ «جَاءَنِي النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَعُودُنِي وَأَنَا مَرِيضٌ لَا أَعْقِلُ فَتَوَضَّأَ وَصَبَّ مِنْ وَضُوئِهِ عَلَيَّ» فَعَقَلْتُ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ لِمَنِ الْمِيرَاثُ؟ فَإِنَّمَا يَرِثُنِي كَلَالَةً فَنَزَلَتْ آيَةُ الْفَرَائِضِ  

Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to visit me while I was sick and unconscious. He performed ablution and sprinkled the remaining water on me and I became conscious and said, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! To whom will my inheritance go as I have neither ascendants nor descendants?" Then the Divine verses regarding Fara'id (inheritance) were revealed. (Using translation from Bukhārī 194)   

سَمِعْتُ جَابِرًا يَقُولُ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَعُودُونِي وَأَنَا مَرِيضٌ لَا أَعْقِلُ فَتَوَضَّأَ وَصَبَّ عَلَيَّ مِنْ وَضُوئِهِ فَعَقَلْتُ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ لِمَنِ الْمِيرَاثُ إِنَّمَا يَرِثُنِي كَلَالَةً فَنَزَلَتْ آيَةُ الْفَرَائِضِ
