1. We were told by my father, may Allah grant him mercy, that he said: We were told by Ali bin Ibrahim bin Hashim, from his father, from Hussain bin Yazid al-Nawfali, from Isma’eel bin Muslim al-Sukuni, from Abu Abdillah, peace be upon him, that he was asked about a man who bequeaths with a share of his property. He said: A share is one of eight, due to the saying of Allah, Exalted and Glorious is He: «The charities are only for the poor, the needy, those who work upon (acquiring) them, those with affectionate hearts, the necks (of human beings in captivity to be liberated), those in debt, for the sake of Allah and for the stranded traveler.» (9:60)
