حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، عَنِ الْجَعْدِ بْنِ أَوْسٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَتْنِي عَائِشَةُ بِنْتُ سَعْدٍ، قالتْ: قَالَ سَعْدٌ: اشْتَكَيْتُ شَكْوًى لِي بِمَكَّةَ، فَدَخَلَ عَلَيَّ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَعُودُنِي، قَالَ: قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، إِنِّي قَدْ تَرَكْتُ مَالًا وَلَيْسَ لِي إِلا ابْنَةٌ وَاحِدَةٌ. أَفَأُوصِي بِثُلُثَيْ مَالِي، وَأَتْرُكُ لَهَا الثُّلُثَ؟ قَالَ: " لَا ". قَالَ: أَفَأُوصِي بِالنِّصْفِ، وَأَتْرُكُ لَهَا النِّصْفَ؟ قَالَ: " لَا ". قَالَ: أَفَأُوصِي بِالثُّلُثِ، وَأَتْرُكُ لَهَا الثُّلُثَيْنِ؟ قَالَ: " الثُّلُثُ، وَالثُّلُثُ كَثِيرٌ " ثَلاثَ مِرَارٍ، قَالَ: فَوَضَعَ، ، يَدَهُ عَلَى جَبْهَتِهِ فَمَسَحَ وَجْهِي وَصَدْرِي وَبَطْنِي، وَقَالَ: " اللهُمَّ اشْفِ سَعْدًا، وَأَتِمَّ لَهُ هِجْرَتَهُ "، فَمَا زِلْتُ يُخَيَّلُ إِلَيَّ بِأَنِّي أَجِدُ بَرْدَ يَدِهِ عَلَى كَبِدِي حَتَّى السَّاعَةِ (١)،

English translation

A"ishah bint Sa"d said: Sa"d (رضي الله عنه) said:

I fell sick in Makkah and the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) entered upon me to visit me. I said: “O Messenger of Allah, I am leaving behind wealth and I have no one except one daughter. Should I bequeath two thirds of my wealth (to charity) and leave her one third?” He said: “No." I said: “Shall I bequeath one half and leave her one half?” He said: "No." I said: “Shall I bequeath one third and leave her two thirds?” He said: “One third, but one third is a lot" three times. Then he laid his hand on my forehead and wiped my forehead, chest and stomach, and said: "O Allah, heal Sa"d and make his migration complete." I still imagine that I can feel the coolness of his hand on my heart until today.
