Musnad of Sa'd ibn Abi Waqqas (RA)

مسند أبي إسحاق سعد بن أبي وقاص (1) رضي الله عنه

Hadith 8:36

Yahya ibn Sa'id narrated to us, from al-Ja'd ibn Aws, who said: 'A'ishah bint Sa'd narrated to me, she said: Sa'd said: I fell ill with an illness of mine in Makkah, and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) entered upon me to visit me. I said: "O Messenger of Allah, I have left behind wealth, and I have no heir except one daughter. Shall I bequeath two-thirds of my wealth and leave her one-third?" He said: "No." I said: "Shall I bequeath half and leave her half?" He said: "No." I said: "Shall I bequeath one-third and leave her two-thirds?" He said: "The third, and the third is much," three times. He said: Then he placed his hand upon my forehead, and wiped my face, my chest, and my stomach, and said: "O Allah, heal Sa'd, and complete his migration for him." I have not ceased to imagine that I feel the coolness of his hand upon my liver until this hour.

حدثنا يحيى بن سعيد، عن الجعد بن أوس، قال: حدثتني عائشة بنت سعد، قالت: قال سعد: اشتكيت شكوى لي بمكة، فدخل علي رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم يعودني، قال: قلت: يا رسول الله، إني قد تركت مالا وليس لي إلا ابنة واحدة. أفأوصي بثلثي مالي، وأترك لها الثلث؟ قال: " لا ". قال: أفأوصي بالنصف، وأترك لها النصف؟ قال: " لا ". قال: أفأوصي بالثلث، وأترك لها الثلثين؟ قال: " الثلث، والثلث كثير " ثلاث مرار، قال: فوضع يده على جبهته فمسح وجهي وصدري وبطني، وقال: " اللهم اشف سعدا، وأتم له هجرته "، فما زلت يخيل إلي بأني أجد برد يده على كبدي حتى الساعة
