قَالَ إِسْحَاقُ: أَخْبَرَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ حَفْصٍ الدِّمَشْقِيُّ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي، عَنْ خَوْلَةَ بِنْتِ فَهْدٍ، وَكَانَتْ تَحْتَ حَمْزَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ قَالَتْ:
قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، إِنَّا كُنَّا عَلَى مَا عَلِمْتَ، وَإِنَّا قَدْ صَاهَرْنَا إِلَيْكُمْ، فَجَعَلَ اللهُ لَنَا فِي مُصَاهَرَتِكُمْ خَيْرًا، وَإِنَّ أُمِّي هَلَكَتْ، فَهَلْ يَنْفَعُهَا أَنْ أَتَصَدَّقَ عَنْهَا ؟ فَقَالَ: لَوْ تَصَدَّقْتِ عَنْهَا بِكُرَاعٍ لَنَفَعَهَا

✧ I said: 'O Messenger of Allah, we were as you know, and we have become in-laws with you, and Allah has placed good for us in our relationship by marriage with you. My mother has died. Will it benefit her if I give charity on her behalf?' He said: 'If you were to give charity on her behalf with even the foot of a sheep, it would benefit her.'
