6723. Narrated Jābir bin 'Abdullāh رضي الله عنه: I became sick, so Allāh's Messenger ﷺ and Abū Bakr came on foot to pay me a visit. When they came, I was unconscious. Allāh's Messenger ﷺ performed ablution and he poured over me the water of his ablution, and I came to my senses and said, "O Allāh's Messenger! What shall I do regarding my property? How shall I distribute it?" The Prophet ﷺ did not reply till the Divine Verses of inheritance (Al-Farā'id)(2) were revealed.

Arabic text

6723 - حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ المُنْكَدِرِ، سَمِعَ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا، يَقُولُ: " مَرِضْتُ فَعَادَنِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ، وَهُمَا مَاشِيَانِ، فَأَتَانِي وَقَدْ أُغْمِيَ عَلَيَّ، فَتَوَضَّأَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَصَبَّ عَلَيَّ وَضُوءَهُ فَأَفَقْتُ، فَقُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، كَيْفَ أَصْنَعُ فِي مَالِي؟ كَيْفَ أَقْضِي فِي مَالِي؟ فَلَمْ يُجِبْنِي بِشَيْءٍ حَتَّى نَزَلَتْ آيَةُ المَوَارِيثِ "
