(52) – باب مَنْ قَالَ فِيهِ وَلِعَقِبِهِ
(1333) – Life-Long Gift With Mention Of Descendants
Sunan Abu Dawood 3555
Narrated Jabir bin ‘Abdullah :
The life-tenancy which the Messenger of Allah ﷺ allowed was only that one should say: It is for you and your descendants. When he says: It is yours as long as you live, it returns to its owner.
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ حَنْبَلٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ إِنَّمَا الْعُمْرَى الَّتِي أَجَازَهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَنْ يَقُولَ هِيَ لَكَ وَلِعَقِبِكَ . فَأَمَّا إِذَا قَالَ هِيَ لَكَ مَا عِشْتَ . فَإِنَّهَا تَرْجِعُ إِلَى صَاحِبِهَا .
