كَتَبْتُ إِلَيْهِ رَجُلٌ مَاتَ وَ جَعَلَ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ لَهُ فِي حَيَاتِهِ لَكَ وَ لَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ وَلَدٌ ثُمَّ إِنَّهُ أَصَابَ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ وَلَداً وَ مَبْلَغُ مَالِهِ ثَلَاثَةُ آلَافِ دِرْهَمٍ وَ قَدْ بَعَثْتُ إِلَيْكَ بِأَلْفِ دِرْهَمٍ فَإِنْ رَأَيْتَ جَعَلَنِيَ اللَّهُ فِدَاكَ أَنْ تُعْلِمَنِي فِيهِ رَأْيَكَ لِأَعْمَلَ بِهِ فَكَتَبَ أَطْلِقْ لَهُمْ .
Translation
From him, from Muhammad Bin Ahmad, from Al Husayn, from Maalik who said, ‘I wrote to him<sup>asws</sup>, ‘A man died and made everything of his during his lifetime, to be for you<sup>asws</sup>, and there was no child for him. Then a child was born (after his death) and his wealth had reached three thousand Dirham, and I had sent to you a thousand Dirhams. May I be sacrificed for you<sup>asws</sup>, So if you<sup>asws</sup> could let me know your<sup>asws</sup> view with regards to it, so that I can act upon it’. So he<sup>asws</sup> wrote: ‘I<sup>asws</sup> leave it for them’.
