أَخْبَرَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ عَامِرِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ
اشْتَكَيْتُ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فِي حَجَّةِ الْوَدَاعِ حَتَّى إِذَا أُدْنِفْتُ فَدَخَلَ عَلَيَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَعُودُنِي فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَا أُرَانِي إِلَّا أُلِمَّ بِي وَأَنَا ذُو مَالٍ كَثِيرٍ وَإِنَّمَا يَرِثُنِي ابْنَةٌ لِي أَفَأَتَصَدَّقُ بِمَالِي كُلِّهِ؟ قَالَ «لَا» قُلْتُ فَنِصْفِهِ قَالَ «لَا» قُلْتُ فَالثُّلُثِ؟ قَالَ «الثُّلُثُ وَالثُّلُثُ كَثِيرٌ إِنَّكَ إِنْ تَتْرُكْ وَرَثَتَكَ أَغْنِيَاءَ خَيْرٌ مِنْ أَنْ تَتْرُكَهُمْ فُقَرَاءَ يَتَكَفَّفُونَ النَّاسَ بِأَيْدِيهِمْ وَإِنَّكَ لَا تُنْفِقُ نَفَقَةً إِلَّا آجَرَكَ اللَّهُ فِيهَا حَتَّى مَا تَجْعَلُ فِي فِي امْرَأَتِكَ»

✧ I fell ill along with the Prophet ﷺ during the Farewell Pilgrimage, until I became seriously ill. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ entered upon me to visit me, so I said, “O Messenger of Allah, I think that I am dying, and I have a lot of wealth, and none will inherit from me except a daughter of mine. Should I give all my wealth in charity?” He said, “No.” I said, “Then half of it?” He said, “No.” I said, “Then a third?” He said, “A third, and a third is a lot. If you leave your heirs wealthy, it is better than leaving them poor, begging people with their hands. And you do not spend any expenditure except that Allah rewards you for it, even the morsel you put into your wife’s mouth.”

يرويه الزهري وهو صحيح عنه ورواه سعد بن إبراهيم فاختلف عنه فيه فرواه الثوري عن سعد عن عامر بن سعد عن أبيه وقال مسعر عن سعد حدثني بعض آل سعد عن سعد وهو صحيح عن عامر بن سعد عن أبيه من رواية الزهري ومن رواية سعد بن إبراهيم
machine translationAl-Zuhrī narrates it, and it is sound (ṣaḥīḥ) from him. Saʿd b. Ibrāhīm also narrated it, and there is disagreement about him concerning it: al-Thawrī narrated it from Saʿd, from ʿĀmir b. Saʿd, from his father; and Misʿar said, from Saʿd: "Some of the family of Saʿd narrated to me, from Saʿd." And it is sound (ṣaḥīḥ) from ʿĀmir b. Saʿd, from his father, through the narration of al-Zuhrī and through the narration of Saʿd b. Ibrāhīm.
