أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الْحَجَّاجُ بْنُ الْمِنْهَالِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا هَمَّامٌ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ يُونُسَ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ سَعْدِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ
أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ جَاءَهُ وَهُوَ مَرِيضٌ فَقَالَ إِنَّهُ لَيْسَ لِي وَلَدٌ إِلَّا ابْنَةٌ وَاحِدَةٌ فَأُوصِي بِمَالِي كُلِّهِ؟ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «لَا» قَالَ فَأُوصِي بِنِصْفِهِ؟ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «لَا» قَالَ فَأُوصِي بِثُلُثِهِ؟ قَالَ «الثُّلُثُ وَالثُّلُثُ كَبِيرٌ»

✧ The Prophet ﷺ came to him while he was ill, and he said: I have no child except one daughter. Shall I bequeath all my wealth? The Prophet ﷺ said: “No.” He said: Then shall I bequeath half of it? The Prophet ﷺ said: “No.” He said: Then shall I bequeath a third of it? He said: “A third, and a third is large.”
