حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ إِنَّمَا الْعُمْرَ
ى الَّتِي أَجَازَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ يَقُولَ هِيَ لَكَ وَلِعَقِبِكَ فَأَمَّا إِذَا قَالَ هِيَ لَكَ مَا عِشْتَ فَإِنَّهَا تَرْجِعُ إِلَى صَاحِبِهَا

Abd al-Razzaq narrated to us, Ma'mar informed us, from al-Zuhri, from Abu Salamah ibn Abd al-Rahman, from Jabir ibn Abdullah (رضي الله عنه) who said: The umra (lifelong gift) that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ permitted is when a man says: 'It is yours and your descendants.' When he says: 'It is yours as long as you live,' it returns to its owner.
