Jami' at-Tirmidhi 667

Translation

"I was sitting with the Prophet when a woman came to him and said: 'O Messenger of Allah! I gave a slave girl to my mother in charity and she died.' He said: 'Your reward is already established, and your right to inherit her has returned it (that Sadaqah) to you.' She said: 'O Messenger of Allah! There was a month of fasting due on her, shall I perform the fast for her?' He said: 'Fast on her behalf.' She said: 'O Messenger of Allah! She never performed Hajj, shall I perform Hajj for her?' He said: 'Yes, perform Hajj on her behalf.'"

  machine translationAbū ʿĪsā said: This is a good and sound (ḥasan ṣaḥīḥ) hadith. This hadith is not known from the narration of Buraydah except through this route. ʿAbdullāh b. ʿAṭāʾ is trustworthy (thiqah) according to the scholars of hadith. The practice according to most of the people of knowledge is in accordance with this: that when a man gives a charity and then inherits it, it is lawful for him. Some of them said: Charity is only something that he devoted to Allah, so when he inherits it, he must spend it in the same way. Sufyān al-Thawrī and Zuhayr b. Muʿāwiyah also narrated this hadith from ʿAbdullāh b. ʿAṭāʾ. Report a problem
