وَعَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: «أَيُّكُمْ مَالُ وَارِثِهِ أَحَبُّ إِلَيْهِ مِنْ مَالِهِ؟» قَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَا مَنَّا أَحَدٌ إِلَّا مَالُهُ أَحَبُّ إِلَيْهِ مِنْ مَالِ وَارِثِهِ. قَالَ: «فَإِنَّ مَالَهُ مَا قَدَّمَ وَمَالَ وَارِثِهِ مَا أخر» . رَوَاهُ البُخَارِيّ
Abdullah ibn Mas'ud Narrated from:
Allah's Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم said, "which one of you holds his heirs property dearer than his own?" The sahabah (Prophet's Companions) رضي الله عنهم submitted, "O Messenger of Allah, there is none of us to whom his own property is not dearer than his heir's." He said, "His own property is what he had sent ahead of him (as charity, etc) and heir's property is what he leaves behind." [2]
