حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَيْثَمَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ عَامِرِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ:

جَاءَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَعُودُهُ وَهُوَ بِمَكَّةَ، وَهُوَ يَكْرَهُ أَنْ يَمُوتَ بِالْأَرْضِ الَّتِي هَاجَرَ مِنْهَا، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ: يَرْحَمُ اللهُ سَعْدَ بْنَ عَفْرَاءَ، وَلَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ إِلَّا ابْنَةٌ وَاحِدَةٌ، فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، أُوصِي بِمَالِي كُلِّهِ ؟ قَالَ: " لَا " قَالَ: فَالنِّصْفُ ؟ قَالَ: لَا. قَالَ: فَالثُّلُثُ ؟ قَالَ: الثُّلُثُ، وَالثُّلُثُ كَثِيرٌ، إِنَّكَ أَنْ تَدَعَ وَرَثَتَكَ أَغْنِيَاءَ، خَيْرٌ مِنْ أَنْ تَدَعَهُمْ عَالَةً يَتَكَفَّفُونَ فِي أَيْدِيهِمْ، وَإِنَّكَ مَهْمَا تُنْفِقْ مِنْ نَفَقَةٍ فَإِنَّهَا صَدَقَةٌ، حَتَّى اللُّقْمَةُ تَرْفَعُهَا فِي فِي امْرَأَتِكَ، وَلَعَلَّ اللهَ أَنْ يَرْزُقَكَ فَيَنْتَفِعَ بِكَ أُنَاسٌ، وَيُضَرَّ بِكَ آخَرُونَ

✧ The Prophet ﷺ came to visit him while he was in Makkah, and he disliked dying in the land from which he had emigrated. The Prophet ﷺ said: May Allah have mercy on Sa'd ibn 'Afra'. He had only one daughter, so he said: O Messenger of Allah, should I bequeath all my wealth? He said: "No." He said: Then half? He said: "No." He said: Then a third? He said: "A third, and a third is much. That you leave your heirs wealthy is better than leaving them poor, begging from people. Whatever you spend, it is charity, even a morsel you raise to your wife's mouth. Perhaps Allah will grant you provision and some people will benefit through you, and others will be harmed through you."
