nasai:3728Aḥmad b. Sulaymān > ʿUbaydullāh > Isrāʾīl > ʿAbd al-Karīm > ʿAṭāʾ

"The Messenger of Allah forbade 'Umra and Ruqba." I said: "What is Ruqba?" He said: "When one man says to another: 'This belongs to you for the rest of your life.' But if you do that, it is permissible."  

النسائي:٣٧٢٨أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ عَنْ إِسْرَائِيلَ عَنْ عَبْدِ الْكَرِيمِ عَنْ عَطَاءٍ قَالَ

نَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَنِ الْعُمْرَى وَالرُّقْبَى قُلْتُ وَمَا الرُّقْبَى قَالَ يَقُولُ الرَّجُلُ لِلرَّجُلِ هِيَ لَكَ حَيَاتَكَ فَإِنْ فَعَلْتُمْ فَهُوَ جَائِزَةٌ
