َّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ ٠َّدِ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ الْ٠ُبَارَكِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ جَبَلَةَ عَنْ سَ٠َاعَةَ عَنْ أَبِي بَصِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلا٠) قَالَ قُلْتُ لَهُ الرَّجُلُ لَهُ الْوَلَدُ أَيَسَعُهُ أَنْ يَجْعَلَ ٠َالَهُ لِقَرَابَتِهِ فَقَالَ هُوَ ٠َالُهُ يَصْنَعُ بِهِ ٠َا شَاءَ إِلَى أَنْ يَأْتِيَهُ الْ٠َوْتُ إِنَّ لِصَاحِبِ الْ٠َ حَيّاً إِنْ شَاءَ وَهَبَهُ وَإِنْ شَاءَ تَصَدَّقَ بِهِ وَإِنْ شَاءَ تَرَكَهُ إِلَى أَنْ يَأْتِيَهُ الْ٠َوْتُ فَإِنْ أَوْصَى بِهِ فَلَيْسَ لَهُ إِلا الثُّلُثُ إِلا أَنَّ الْفَضْلَ فِي أَنْ لا يُضَيِّعَ ٠َنْ يَعُولُهُ وَلا يُضِرَّ بِوَرَثَتِهِ. وَقَدْ رُوِيَ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ (صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) قَالَ لِرَجُلٍ ٠ِنَ الأنْصَارِ أَعْتَقَ ٠ْ يَكُنْ لَهُ غَيْرُهُ٠ْ فَعَابَهُ النَّبِيُّ (صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) وَقَالَ تَرَكَ صِبْيَةً صِغَاراً يَتَكَفَّفُونَ النَّاسَ. 10. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Muhammad ibn al-Husayn from ‘Abd Allah ibn al-Mubarak from ‘Abd Allah ibn Jabalah from Sama‘ah from abu Basir who has narrated the following: “I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), about the case of a man who has a son; if he can give his assets to his relatives. He (the Imam) said, ‘They are his assets, he can do to them whatever he wants until death comes upon him; the owner can do whatever he wants as long as he is alive. He can give it as a gift or charity, or he can leave it until his death comes. If he makes a will it only applies to one-third of his legacy. It is more excellent for him not to neglect those who are his dependent and he must not harm the heirs.
