1953. Narrated Ibn ‘Abbās رضي الله عنهما: A man came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, “O Allāh’s Messenger! My mother died and she ought to have observed Ṣaum (fast) one month (for her missed Ramaḍān). Shall I observe Ṣaum on her behalf?” The Prophet ﷺ replied in the affirmative and said, “Allāh’s debts have more right to be paid.”
Sulaiman said: Al-Hakam and Salama said: We were all there when Muslim narrated this Hadīth. They said: We heard Mujahid saying this on Ibn ‘Abbās’ authority, and the authority of Abī Khalīd that: Al-A’mash told Abī Khalīd on the authority of Al-Hakam and Muslim Al-Batin and Salama bin Kuhail who heard Sa’īd bin Jubair, Aṭa and Mujahid that Ibn ‘Abbās said.
In another narration a woman is reported to have said, “My sister died and Yahya and Abū Mu’awiya on the authority of Al-A’mash who said on the authority of Sa’īd who said he heard Ibn ‘Abbās saying, “A woman said to the Prophet ﷺ, ‘My mother died...’” and Ubaidullāh bin ‘Amr on the authority of Zaid bin Abī Unaisa who was told by Al-Hakam who was in turn told by Sa’īd who reported Ibn ‘Abbās said, “: A woman said to the Prophet ﷺ, ‘My mother died and she had vowed to observe Ṣaum (fast) but she didn’t
observe Saum (fast).” In another narration Ibn ‘Abbās is reported to have said, “A woman said to the Prophet ﷺ, ‘My mother died while she ought to have observed Saum (fast) for fifteen days.’”
