Chapter 55: Wills and Testaments (Wasaayaa)
Narrated Ibn 'Umar: In the lifetime of Allah' s Messenger (ﷺ), 'Umar gave in charity some of his property, a garden of date-palms
called Thamgh. 'Umar said, "O Allah' s Messenger (ﷺ)! I have some property which I prize highly and I want
to give it in charity." The Prophet; said, "Give it in charity (i. e. as an endowment) with its land and
trees on the condition that the land and trees will neither be sold nor given as a present, nor
bequeathed, but the fruits are to be spent in charity." So 'Umar gave it in charity, and it was for
Allah' s Cause, the emancipation of slaves, for the poor, for guests, for travelers, and for kinsmen. The
person acting as its administrator could eat from it reasonably and fairly, and could let a friend of his
eat from it provided he had no intention of becoming wealthy by its means.
