وَحَدَّثَنِي أَبُو الرَّبِيعِ الْعَتَكِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ، حَدَّثَنَا أَيُّوبُ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ حُمَيْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْحِمْيَرِيِّ، عَنْ ثَلاَثَةٍ، مِنْ وَلَدِ سَعْدٍ قَالُوا مَرِضَ سَعْدٌ بِمَكَّةَ فَأَتَاهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَعُودُهُ . بِنَحْوِ حَدِيثِ الثَّقَفِيِّ .
Humaid b. Abd al-Rahmin al-Himayri Narrated from:
Humaid b. Abd al-Rahmin al-Himayri reported on the authority of the three of the sons of Sa'd: They said: Sa'd fell ill in Mecca. Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) visited him to inquire after his health. The rest of the hadith is the same.

Summary of Sahih Muslim Hadith 1628h
This narration reports that Sa'd fell ill in Mecca and that Allah’s Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم visited him to ask about his health. It then says the rest of the hadith is like the report of Thaqafi. So the main topic stays the same: one third will in Islam, family spending, and care for heirs. The text itself is brief, so the explanation should not invent new details. It confirms another route for the same incident. For search intent, people may look for Sa'd ibn Abi Waqqas illness hadith, hadith about one third will, or spending on family as sadaqa. The narration is useful because it links the visit, the illness, and the bequest question to the same remembered event without adding a new ruling.
What we learn from this hadith
- The narration confirms Sa'd’s illness in Mecca.
- It reports that the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم visited him to ask about his health.
- It points back to the same bequest guidance without adding a new ruling.
