Hadith.5438 - Aṣim ibn Humayd narrated from Muhammad ibn Qays from Abu Jafar Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir (as), who said that the
Commander of the Faithful (as) said:
"Indeed, the debt takes precedence over the will, then the will follows after the debt, and then the inheritance comes after the will. Verily, fulfilling what is prescribed in the Book of Allah (swt), the Mighty and Majestic, has the highest priority."
5438 - وَ رَوَى عَاصِمُ بْنُ حُمَيْدٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ
قَالَ أَمِيرُ اَلْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ : "إِنَّ اَلدَّيْنَ قَبْلَ اَلْوَصِيَّةِ ثُمَّ اَلْوَصِيَّةَ عَلَى أَثَرِ اَلدَّيْنِ ثُمَّ اَلْمِيرَاثَ بَعْدَ اَلْوَصِيَّةِ فَإِنَّ أَوْلَى اَلْقَضَاءِ كِتَابُ اَللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ".
