14. Gifts
١٤۔ كتاب الهبات
“There is no lifelong grant. Whoever is given something as a lifelong grant, it is his.' ”
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ لاَ عُمْرَى فَمَنْ أُعْمِرَ شَيْئًا فَهُوَ لَهُ
“I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: 'Whoever gives a lifelong grant to a man, it belongs to him (the recipient) and to his heirs. His (the giver's) words put an end to his right to it, and it belongs to the one to whom it was given for life and to his heirs.”
سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ مَنْ أَعْمَرَ رَجُلاً عُمْرَى لَهُ وَلِعَقِبِهِ فَقَدْ قَطَعَ قَوْلُهُ حَقَّهُ فِيهَا فَهِيَ لِمَنْ أُعْمِرَ وَلِعَقِبِهِ
the Prophet ﷺ ruled that a gift given for life belongs to the heirs (of the recipient).
أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ جَعَلَ الْعُمْرَى لِلْوَارِثِ
