If the Beneficiary of a Will dies before the Death of the Testator or before Taking Possession

2- مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ عِمْرَانَ بْنِ مُوسَى عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ سَعِيدٍ الْمَدَائِنِيِّ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عُمَرَ السَّابَاطِيِّ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ أَبَا جَعْفَرٍ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) عَنْ رَجُلٍ أَوْصَى إِلَيَّ وَأَمَرَنِي أَنْ أُعْطِيَ عَمّاً لَهُ فِي كُلِّ سَنَةٍ شَيْئاً فَمَاتَ الْعَمُّ فَكَتَبَ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) أَعْطِهِ وَرَثَتَهُ.
2. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from ‘Imran ibn Musa from Musa ibn Ja‘far from ‘Amr ibn Sa‘id al-Mad’iniy from Muhammad ibn ‘Umar al-Sabatiy who has narrated the following: “I once asked abu Ja‘far عليه السلام, about the case of a man who made a will that said I must give something to his uncle every year, but the uncle has died. He (the Imam) عليه السلام, wrote, ‘You must give it to his heirs.’”
