3662. It was narrated from Sa'd that the Prophet ﷺ visited him when he was sick, and he said: "O Messenger of Allāh, shall I bequeath all of my wealth?" He said: "No." He said: "Half?" He said: "No." He said: "One-third?" He said: "One-third, and one-third is a much or large." (Sahih)

Arabic text

3632 - أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ سَعْدٍ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَادَهُ فِي مَرَضِهِ، فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، أُوصِي بِمَالِي كُلِّهِ؟ قَالَ: «لَا»، قَالَ: فَالشَّطْرَ؟ قَالَ: «لَا»، قَالَ: فَالثُّلُثَ؟ قَالَ: «الثُّلُثَ، وَالثُّلُثُ كَثِيرٌ أَوْ كَبِيرٌ»
