[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "I am closer to every believer than his own self. So whoever abandons a debt or property, it belongs to me. And whoever leaves behind wealth, it belongs to his inheritors. And I am the guardian of those who have no guardian, so I inherit their wealth and release their burdens." Abu Dawood said, "He is the guardian of those who have no guardian, inheriting their wealth and releasing their burdens."

abudawud:2900Sulaymān

The Prophet ﷺ said: I am nearer to every believer than himself, so if anyone leaves a debt or a helpless family, I shall be responsible, but if anyone leaves property, it goes to his heirs. I am patron of him who has none, inheriting his property and freeing him from his liabilities. A maternal uncle is patron of him who has none, inheriting his property and freeing him from his liabilities. Abu Dawud said: da'iah means dependants or helpless family. Abu Dawud said: This tradition has been transmitted by al-Zubaidi from Rashid b. Sa'd from Ibn 'A'idh on the authority of al-Miqdam. It has also been transmitted by Mu'awiyah b. Salih from Rashid who said: I heard al-Miqdam (say).
