Hadith 13:2668

Abu Bakr narrated to us, he said: Waki’ narrated to us, he said: Jarir ibn Hazim narrated to us, from Ibn Sirin, from Shurayh, who said: A blind man came to him disputing over a slave woman whom he had granted a life-tenancy (*umra*). Shurayh ruled in favor of the one to whom he had granted the life-tenancy. The man said: "You have ruled against me." He (Shurayh) said: "It is not I who have ruled against you, but the Messenger of Allah (may Allah bless him and grant him peace) has ruled: 'Whoever possesses something during his life, it is his during his life and after his death.'"

حدثنا أبو بكر قال حدثنا وكيع قال حدثنا جرير بن حازم عن بن سيرين عن شريح قال جاءه رجل أعمى يخاصم في أمة أعمرها فقضى لها شريح للذي أعمرها فقال الرجل قضيت علي فقال ما أنا قضيت عليك ولكن قضى رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم من ملك شيئا حياته فهو له حياته وبعد موته
