(5). 3316. Aḍ-Ḍaḥḥāk bin Muzāḥim narrated from Ibn 'Abbās [may Allāh be pleased with him] who said: "Whoever has wealth, requiring him to perform Hajj to the House of his Lord, or upon which Zakāt is obligatory, but he
does not do it, then he shall ask to return (the world) upon his death.” A man said: “O Ibn ‘Abbās! Have Taqwā of Allāh! It is only the disbelievers who will be asked to return.” He said: “For that, I shall recite to you from the Qur’ān: O you who believe! Let not your properties or your children divert you from the remembrance of Allāh. And whosoever does that, then they are the losers. And spend of that with which We have provided you before death comes to one of you, and he says: “My Lord! If only You would give me respite for a little while, then I should give Sadaqah” up to His saying: “And Allāh is All-Aware of what you do.”[1] He said: “So what makes Zakāt obligatory?” He said: “When wealth reaches two-hundred or above.”[2] He said: “What makes Hajj obligatory?” He said: “Provisions and a camel.”
(Da’if)
(6). (Another chain) from Aḍ-Ḍaḥḥāk from Ibn ‘Abbās, from the Prophet ﷺ with similar. (Da’if)
He said: This is how this Hadīth was reported by [Sufyān] bin ‘Uyainah and others; from Abū Janāb, from Aḍ-Ḍaḥḥāk from Ibn ‘Abbās, as his saying, not in Marfū’ form. And this is more correct than the narration of ‘Abdur-Razzāq. Abū Janāb Al-Qaṣṣāb’s name is Yahyā bin Abī Hayyah and he is not strong in Hadīth.

Commentary
These Qur'anic Verses guides that the substance that Allāh has given a person, he should make a good use of the wealth before death. Lest death should approach and he would say with remorse, "O Lord! Grant me some more respite! I shall spend in charity and I can be from among the good doers."
