14- عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ قَالَ أَوْصَتْ إِلَيَّ امْرَأَةٌ مِنْ أَهْلِي بِثُلُثِ مَالِهَا وَأَمَرَتْ أَنْ يُعْتَقَ وَيُحَجَّ وَيُتَصَدَّقَ فَلَمْ يَبْلُغْ ذَلِكَ فَسَأَلْتُ أَبَا حَنِيفَةَ عَنْهَا فَقَالَ تَجْعَلُ أَثْلاثاً ثُلُثاً فِي الْعِتْقِ وَثُلُثاً فِي الْحَجِّ وَثُلُثاً فِي الصَّدَقَةِ فَدَخَلْتُ عَلَى أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) فَقُلْتُ إِنَّ امْرَأَةً مِنْ أَهْلِي مَاتَتْ وَأَوْصَتْ إِلَيَّ بِثُلُثِ مَالِهَا وَأَمَرَتْ أَنْ يُعْتَقَ عَنْهَا وَيُتَصَدَّقَ وَيُحَجَّ عَنْهَا فَنَظَرْتُ فِيهِ فَلَمْ يَبْلُغْ فَقَالَ ابْدَأْ بِالْحَجِّ فَإِنَّهُ فَرِيضَةٌ مِنْ فَرَائِضِ اللهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ وَيُجْعَلُ مَا بَقِيَ طَائِفَةً فِي الْعِتْقِ وَطَائِفَةً فِي الصَّدَقَةِ فَأَخْبَرْتُ أَبَا حَنِيفَةَ بِقَوْلِ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) فَرَجَعَ عَنْ قَوْلِهِ وَقَالَ بِقَوْلِ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام).
14. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Mu‘awiyah ibn ‘Ammar who has narrated the following: “A woman of our family made a will about one-third of her legacy and asked to set free a slave, perform al-Hajj and give charity; but the one-third was not sufficient. I asked abu Hanifah about it and he said, ’Make it in three equal parts and spend one part for each cause/ I then visited abu ‘ Abd Allah , and said that a woman from our family has died and made a will about one-third of her legacy and has asked to set free a slave, perform al-Hajj and pay charity. I checked it but it is not sufficient. He (the Imam) said, ’You must begin with al-Hajj because it is obligatory of the obligation to Allah, most Majestic, most Glorious, and make the remaining into two parts: one for setting free a slave and one for charity.’ I then informed abu Hanifah about the words of abu ‘Abd Allah
. He changed his fatwa and accepted the words of abu ‘Abd Allah
.”
