3559. It was narrated that Zaid bin Thābit said: "The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: 'Whoever gives something as a life-long gift, it belongs to the one to whom it is given, during his life and after his death. And do not give gifts to be given to the last one alive; if someone is given such a gift, it is to be regarded as part of his estate.'" (Sahih)
3559 - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ النُّفَيْلِيُّ، قَالَ: قَرَأْتُ عَلَى مَعْقِلٍ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ دِينَارٍ، عَنْ طَاوُسٍ، عَنْ حُجْرٍ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «مَنْ أَعْمَرَ شَيْئًا فَهُوَ لِمُعْمَرِهِ مَحْيَاهُ وَمَمَاتَهُ، وَلَا تُرْقِبُوا فَمَنْ أَرْقَبَ شَيْئًا فَهُوَ سَبِيلُهُ»
