"From Sufyan, from Az-Zuhri, from 'Ubaidullah bin 'Abdullah, from Ibn 'Abbas, that Sa'd bin 'Ubadah consulted the Prophet about a vow which his mother had to fulfill, but she died before doing so. The Messenger of Allah said: 'Fulfill it on her behalf.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3660)
أَنَّ سَعْدَ بْنَ عُبَادَةَ اسْتَفْتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فِي نَذْرٍ كَانَ عَلَى أُمِّهِ فَتُوُفِّيَتْ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَقْضِيَهُ قَالَ «اقْضِهِ عَنْهَا»
"Sufyan narrated to us from Az-Zuhri, from 'Ubaidullah bin 'Abdullah, from Ibn 'Abbas, that Sa'd said: 'My mother died and there was an (outstanding) vow that she had to fulfill. I asked the Prophet and he told me to fulfill it on her behalf.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3661)
أَنَّهُ قَالَ مَاتَتْ أُمِّي وَعَلَيْهَا نَذْرٌ فَسَأَلْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَأَمَرَنِي أَنْ أَقْضِيَهُ عَنْهَا
"From Sufyan, from Az-Zuhri, from 'Ubaidullah bin 'Abdullah, from Ibn 'Abbas, that Sa'd bin 'Ubadah consulted the Prophet about a vow which his mother had to fulfill, but she died before doing so. The Messenger of Allah said: 'Fulfill it on her behalf.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3660)
اسْتَفْتَى سَعْدُ بْنُ عُبَادَةَ الْأَنْصَارِيُّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فِي نَذْرٍ كَانَ عَلَى أُمِّهِ فَتُوُفِّيَتْ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَقْضِيَهُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «اقْضِهِ عَنْهَا»
Sa'd bin 'Ubadah came to the Prophet and said: "My mother has died and she had a vow to fulfill but she did not do so." He said: "Fulfill it on her behalf." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3663)
جَاءَ سَعْدُ بْنُ عُبَادَةَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ إِنَّ أُمِّي مَاتَتْ وَعَلَيْهَا نَذْرٌ وَلَمْ تَقْضِهِ قَالَ «اقْضِهِ عَنْهَا»
"I said: 'O Messenger of Allah, my mother has died; shall I give in charity on her behalf?' He said: 'Yes.' I said: 'What kind of charity is best?' He said: 'Providing drinking water.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3664)
قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّ أُمِّي مَاتَتْ أَفَأَتَصَدَّقُ عَنْهَا؟ قَالَ «نَعَمْ» قُلْتُ فَأَيُّ الصَّدَقَةِ أَفْضَلُ؟ قَالَ «سَقْيُ الْمَاءِ»
"I said: 'O Messenger of Allah, what charity is best?' He said: 'Giving water to drink.'" (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 3684)
قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَيُّ الصَّدَقَةِ أَفْضَلُ؟ قَالَ «سَقْيُ الْمَاءِ»
"O Messenger of Allah, my mother has died; can I give charity on her behalf?" He said: "Yes." He said: "What kind of charity is best?" He said: "Providing drinking water." And that is the drinking-fountain of Sa'd in Al-Madinah. (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3666)
يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّ أُمِّي مَاتَتْ أَفَأَتَصَدَّقُ عَنْهَا؟ قَالَ «نَعَمْ» قَالَ فَأَيُّ الصَّدَقَةِ أَفْضَلُ؟ قَالَ «سَقْيُ الْمَاءِ» فَتِلْكَ سِقَايَةُ سَعْدٍ بِالْمَدِينَةِ
