Sahih al-Bukhari 6442

Hadith text

Narrated `Abdullah:The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Who among you considers the wealth of his heirs dearer to him than his own wealth?" They replied, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! There is none among us but loves his own wealth more." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "So his wealth is whatever he spends (in Allah's Cause) during his life (on good deeds) while the wealth of his heirs is whatever he leaves after his death

Abdullah bataate hain: Nabi (SAW) ne farmaya, 'Tum mein se kaunsa shaks apne waarison ki daulat ko apni khud ki daulat se zyaada pyaara samajhta hai?' Unhone jawab diya, 'Aye Allah ke Rasool! Hum mein se koi aisa nahi jo apni khud ki daulat se zyaada mohabbat na karta ho.' Nabi (SAW) ne kaha, 'To uski daulat wo hai jo wo apni zindagi mein (Allah ki raah mein, nek amaal mein) kharch karta hai, jabke uske waarison ki daulat wo hai jo wo apni maut ke baad chhodta hai.'
