30. Wills and Testaments
٣٠۔ كتاب الوصايا
"I asked Ibn Abi Awfa: 'Did the Messenger of Allah leave a will?' He said: 'No.' I said: 'How come it is prescribed for the Muslims to make wills?' He said: 'He left instructions urging the Muslims to adhere to the Book of Allah.'"
سَأَلْتُ ابْنَ أَبِي أَوْفَى أَوْصَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ لاَ قُلْتُ كَيْفَ كَتَبَ عَلَى الْمُسْلِمِينَ الْوَصِيَّةَ قَالَ أَوْصَى بِكِتَابِ اللَّهِ
"The Messenger of Allah did not leave behind a Dinar or a Dirham, or a sheep or a camel, and he did not leave any will."
مَا تَرَكَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ دِينَارًا وَلاَ دِرْهَمًا وَلاَ شَاةً وَلاَ بَعِيرًا وَلاَ أَوْصَى بِشَىْءٍ
"The Messenger of Allah did not leave behind a Dirham or a Dinar, or a sheep or a camel, and he did not leave any will."
مَا تَرَكَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ دِرْهَمًا وَلاَ دِينَارًا وَلاَ شَاةً وَلاَ بَعِيرًا وَمَا أَوْصَى
"The Messenger of Allah did not leave behind a Dirham or a Dinar, or a sheep or a camel, and he did not leave any will." Ja'far did not mention "Dinar or Dirham."
مَا تَرَكَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ دِرْهَمًا وَلاَ دِينَارًا وَلاَ شَاةً وَلاَ بَعِيرًا وَلاَ أَوْصَى لَمْ يَذْكُرْ جَعْفَرٌ دِينَارًا وَلاَ دِرْهَمًا
"They say that the Messenger of Allah made a will concerning 'Ali, may Allah be pleased with him. But he called for a vessel in which to urinate, then he went limp without me realizing it. So to whom did he leave a will?"
يَقُولُونَ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَوْصَى إِلَى عَلِيٍّ ؓ لَقَدْ دَعَا بِالطَّسْتِ لِيَبُولَ فِيهَا فَانْخَنَثَتْ نَفْسُهُ ﷺ وَمَا أَشْعُرُ فَإِلَى مَنْ أَوْصَى
"The Messenger of Allah died when no one was with him except me." She said: "And he called for a vessel."
تُوُفِّيَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَلَيْسَ عِنْدَهُ أَحَدٌ غَيْرِي قَالَتْ وَدَعَا بِالطَّسْتِ
