5552 - وَ رَوَى اِبْنُ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ عَمَّارِ بْنِ مَرْوَانَ قَالَ : قُلْتُ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ إِنَّ أَبِي حَضَرَهُ اَلْمَوْتُ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ أَوْصِ فَقَالَ هَذَا اِبْنِي يَعْنِي عُمَرَ فَمَا صَنَعَ فَهُوَ جَائِزٌ فَقَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ "فَقَدْ أَوْصَى أَبُوكَ وَ أَوْجَزَ" قَالَ قُلْتُ فَإِنَّهُ أَمَرَ وَ أَوْصَى لَكَ بِكَذَا وَ كَذَا فَقَالَ "أَجِزْ " قُلْتُ فَأَوْصَى بِنَسَمَةٍ مُؤْمِنَةٍ عَارِفَةٍ فَلَمَّا أَعْتَقْنَاهَا بَانَ أَنَّهَا لِغَيْرِ رِشْدَةٍ فَقَالَ "قَدْ أَجْزَأَتْ عَنْهُ إِنَّمَا مَثَلُ ذَلِكَ مَثَلُ رَجُلٍ اِشْتَرَى أُضْحِيَّةً عَلَى أَنَّهَا سَمِينَةٌ فَوَجَدَهَا مَهْزُولَةً فَقَدْ أَجْزَأَتْ عَنْهُ".
Hadith.5552 - Ibn Abi Umayr narrated from Ammar ibn Marwan, who said:
"I said to Abu Abdullah : 'My father was on his deathbed, and I said to him, "Make a will."
He (my father) said, "This is my son," referring to Umar, "whatever he does is valid."'
Abu Abdullah
, said: "Your father has indeed made a will and done so concisely."
I said: 'He also instructed and willed to give you such and such.'
Imam
said: "Approve it."
I said: 'He made a bequest to free a believing and knowledgeable soul, but when we emancipated her, it became evident that she was not of proper lineage.'
Imam
said: "It has fulfilled his obligation. The example of this is like a man who buys a sacrificial animal thinking it is fat, but then finds it to be thin. It still suffices for him."
