Chapter on a Man Who Makes a Bequest of Wealth in the Way of Allah
وَ رَوَى مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عِيسَى عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سُلَيْمَانَ عَنِ اَلْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ إِنَّ رَجُلاً أَوْصَى إِلَيَّ بِشَيْءٍ فِي سَبِيلِ اَللَّهِ فَقَالَ لِي "اِصْرِفْهُ فِي اَلْحَجِّ" قَالَ قُلْتُ أَوْصَى إِلَيَّ فِي اَلسَّبِيلِ قَالَ "اِصْرِفْهُ فِي اَلْحَجِّ فَإِنِّي لاَ أَعْلَمُ سَبِيلاً مِنْ سُبُلِهِ أَفْضَلَ مِنَ اَلْحَجِّ".
Muhammad bin Isa narrated from Muhammad bin Sulayman from Al-Husayn bin Umar, who said: I said to Abu Abdullah عليه السلام, "A man made a will to me regarding something in the way of Allah سبحانه وتعالى." Imam عليه السلام said to me: "Use it for Hajj." I said: "He made a will to me in the way." Imam عليه السلام said: "Use it for Hajj, for I do not know of any path among His سبحانه وتعالى paths better than Hajj."
