أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا جَرِيرٌ عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ السَّائِبِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ أَبِي وَقَّاصٍ قَالَ

عَادَنِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فِي مَرَضِي فَقَالَ «أَوْصَيْتَ؟» قُلْتُ نَعَمْ قَالَ «بِكَمْ؟» قُلْتُ بِمَالِي كُلِّهِ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ قَالَ «فَمَا تَرَكْتَ لِوَلَدِكَ؟» قُلْتُ هُمْ أَغْنِيَاءُ قَالَ «أَوْصِ بِالْعُشْرِ» فَمَا زَالَ يَقُولُ وَأَقُولُ حَتَّى قَالَ «أَوْصِ بِالثُّلُثِ وَالثُّلُثُ كَثِيرٌ أَوْ كَبِيرٌ»

✧ The Messenger of God ﷺ visited me during my illness and said: “Have you made a will?” I said: Yes. He said: “For how much?” I said: All my wealth in the cause of God. He said: “Then what have you left for your children?” I said: They are wealthy. He said: “Bequeath a tenth.” He kept saying and I kept saying until he said: “Bequeath a third, and a third is much or large.”
