أَخْبَرَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَلِيٍّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ عَامِرِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ

كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَعُودُهُ وَهُوَ بِمَكَّةَ وَهُوَ يَكْرَهُ أَنْ يَمُوتَ بِالْأَرْضِ الَّتِي هَاجَرَ مِنْهَا فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «يَرْحَمُ اللهُ سَعْدَ ابْنَ عَفْرَاءَ يَرْحَمُ اللهُ سَعْدَ ابْنَ عَفْرَاءَ» وَلَمْ تَكُنْ لَهُ إِلَّا ابْنَةٌ وَاحِدَةٌ قَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أُوصِي بِمَالِي كُلِّهِ؟ قَالَ «لَا» قَالَ النِّصْفُ؟ قَالَ «لَا» قُلْتُ فَالثُّلُثُ؟ قَالَ «الثُّلُثُ والثُّلُثُ كَثِيرٌ إِنَّكَ أَنْ تَدَعَ وَرَثَتَكَ أَغْنِيَاءَ خَيْرٌ مِنْ أَنْ تَدَعَهُمْ عَالَةً يَتَكَفَّفُونَ النَّاسَ مَا فِي أَيْدِيهِمْ» 6423 أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مِسْعَرٌ عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي بَعْضُ آلِ سَعْدٍ قَالَ مَرِضَ سَعْدٌ فَدَخَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أُوصِي بِمَالِي كُلِّهِ؟ قَالَ «لَا» وَسَاقَ الْحَدِيثَ

✧ The Prophet ﷺ used 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 God have mercy on Sa‘d b. ‘Afra’. May God have mercy on Sa‘d b. ‘Afra’.” He had only one daughter. He said: O Messenger of God, shall I bequeath all my wealth? He said: “No.” He said: Half? He said: “No.” I said: Then a third? He said: “A third, and a third is much. If you leave your heirs wealthy, it is better than leaving them dependent, begging from people for what is in their hands.” 6423 Ahmad b. Sulayman informed us, saying: Abu Nu‘aym narrated to us, saying: Mis‘ar narrated to us from Sa‘d b. Ibrahim, who said: A member of Sa‘d’s family narrated to me, saying: Sa‘d fell ill, and the Messenger of God ﷺ entered upon him and said: O Messenger of God, shall I bequeath all my wealth? He said: “No.” And he related the rest of the hadith.
