English Translation

Waki' narrated to us, from Sufyan, from Abu al-Zubayr, from Jabir (رضي الله عنهما), who said: the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'Hold on to your wealth and do not give it as 'umra [a lifetime gift]. For whoever gives something as 'umra, it becomes part of the inheritance [of the recipient, i.e., it becomes their permanent property].'
