Jami' at-Tirmidhi 1350

Translation

"Whichever man is given a lifelong gift for himself and his offspring, then it belongs to the one whom it was given, it does not return to the one who gave it, for he has given a gift which shall be included in the inheritance."

Notes

• قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ وَهَكَذَا رَوَى مَعْمَرٌ وَغَيْرُ وَاحِدٍ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ مِثْلَ رِوَايَةِ مَالِكٍ وَرَوَى بَعْضُهُمْ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ وَلَمْ يَذْكُرْ فِيهِ وَلِعَقِبِهِ وَالْعَمَلُ عَلَى هَذَا عِنْدَ بَعْضِ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ قَالُوا إِذَا قَالَ هِيَ لَكَ حَيَاتَكَ وَلِعَقِبِكَ فَإِنَّهَا لِمَنْ أُعْمِرَهَا لاَ تَرْجِعُ إِلَى الأَوَّلِ وَإِذَا لَمْ يَقُلْ لِعَقِبِكَ فَهِيَ رَاجِعَةٌ إِلَى الأَوَّلِ إِذَا مَاتَ الْمُعْمَرُ وَهُوَ قَوْلُ مَالِكِ بْنِ أَنَسٍ وَالشَّافِعِيِّ وَرُوِيَ مِنْ غَيْرِ وَجْهٍ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ الْعُمْرَى جَائِزَةٌ لأَهْلِهَا وَالْعَمَلُ عَلَى هَذَا عِنْدَ بَعْضِ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ قَالُوا إِذَا مَاتَ الْمُعْمَرُ فَهِيَ لِوَرَثَتِهِ وَإِنْ لَمْ تُجْعَلْ لِعَقِبِهِ وَهُوَ قَوْلُ سُفْيَانَ الثَّوْرِيِّ وَأَحْمَدَ وَإِسْحَاقَ

  machine translationAbū ʿĪsā said: This is a good and sound (ḥasan ṣaḥīḥ) hadith. Maʿmar and more than one narrator reported it from al-Zuhrī in the same way as the narration of Mālik. Some of them narrated it from al-Zuhrī without mentioning in it "and to his heirs." Some of the people of knowledge act upon this. They said: If he says, "It is yours for your lifetime and for your heirs," then it belongs to the one to whom it was granted as a lifetime grant (ʿumrā) and does not return to the first owner. But if he does not say "for your heirs," then it returns to the first owner when the grantee dies. This is the view of Mālik b. Anas and al-Shāfiʿī. It has been narrated through more than one route from the Prophet ﷺ that he said: "The ʿumrā is permissible for its people." Some of the people of knowledge act upon this. They said: When the grantee dies, it belongs to his heirs, even if it was not made for his heirs. This is the view of Sufyān al-Thawrī, Aḥmad and Isḥāq. Report a problem
