Musnad Ahmad 147 (Book 2, Hadith 64) #33839
Inheritance of Loyalty and Wealth

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) taught that a father should not be killed in retaliation for his son's actions, and that the inheritor of a free slave also inherits their wealth.

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ لَهِيعَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ شُعَيْبٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ، عَنْ عُمَرَ، رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ لَا يُقَادُ وَالِدٌ مِنْ وَلَدٍ‏.‏ وَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ يَرِثُ الْمَالَ مَنْ يَرِثُ الْوَلَاءَ‏.‏

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the importance of loyalty and inheritance. The Prophet Muhammad taught that a father should not be killed in retaliation for his son's actions, as this would be unjust. He also taught that when someone inherits the loyalty of a free slave, they also inherit their wealth. This means that if someone has been loyal to you, then you must show them kindness and respect even after they have passed away by ensuring their wealth is inherited by those who were loyal to them. This hadith teaches us to show kindness and respect to those who are loyal to us, even after they have passed away. It also teaches us justice; we must not punish an innocent person for something another person has done wrong.
