Sahih Muslim 1625e (Book 24, Hadith 30) #11304
Life Grants and Descendants' Rights

SUMMARY: The hadith explains that when someone is given a life grant, they and their descendants are entitled to use the property for as long as they live and it becomes their heritage.

Jabir b. 'Abdullah (Allah be pleased with him) reported that Allah's Messenger commanded that whoever is conferred upon a life grant along with his descendants is entitled to make use of the property conferred so long as he lives and his successors (also enjoy this privilege). That (property) becomes the their defect belonging. The donor cannot (after declaring Umra) lay down any condition or make any exception. Abu Salama said: For he conferred a grant and as such it becomes heritage. and the right of inheritance abrogated his condition.
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رَافِعٍ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي فُدَيْكٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي ذِئْبٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ، - وَهُوَ ابْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ - أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَضَى فِيمَنْ أُعْمِرَ عُمْرَى لَهُ وَلِعَقِبِهِ فَهِيَ لَهُ بَتْلَةً لاَ يَجُوزُ لِلْمُعْطِي فِيهَا شَرْطٌ وَلاَ ثُنْيَا ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو سَلَمَةَ لأَنَّهُ أَعْطَى عَطَاءً وَقَعَتْ فِيهِ الْمَوَارِيثُ فَقَطَعَتِ الْمَوَارِيثُ شَرْطَهُ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith explains the rights of those who have been given a life grant. A life grant is when someone gives away some of their property or wealth to another person or group of people, usually for religious purposes. In this case, the recipient and their descendants are allowed to use the property for as long as they live. After that, it becomes part of their heritage and cannot be taken away from them by anyone else. The donor cannot make any exceptions or conditions after giving away the gift either. This means that once it has been given away, it belongs to the recipient forever. This hadith teaches us about generosity and kindness towards others, especially those in need who may not have access to resources otherwise. It also shows us how important family is in Islam - even if something is passed down through generations, its original owner still has rights over it until they pass away.
