Hadith 589
۞
Hadith.5559 - Muhammad ibn Abi Umayr narrated from Hammad ibn Uthman from Abu Abdullah (as), who said
'A man bequeathed thirty dinars to the descendants of Sayyidah Fatimah {s.a}, peace be upon her. The man brought the money to Abu Abdullah (as), who said:
"Give it to such-and-such an elder from the descendants of Sayyidah Fatimah {s.a}, peace be upon her," and that man was poor and struggling to provide for his family.
The man responded: "But the deceased specifically bequeathed it to the descendants of Sayyidah Fatimah {s.a}."
Abu Abdullah (as) replied: "It will not have the same impact on the descendants of Sayyidah Fatimah {s.a} in general, but it will have a meaningful impact on this man, for he has a family to support."

أَوْصَى رَجُلٌ بِثَلاَثِينَ دِينَاراً لِوُلْدِ فَاطِمَةَ عَلَيْهَا اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ فَأَتَى بِهَا اَلرَّجُلُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ فَقَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ "اِدْفَعْهَا إِلَى فُلاَنٍ شَيْخٍ مِنْ وُلْدِ فَاطِمَةَ عَلَيْهَا اَلسَّلاَمُ " وَ كَانَ مُعِيلاً مُقِلاًّ فَقَالَ لَهُ اَلرَّجُلُ إِنَّمَا أَوْصَى بِهَا اَلرَّجُلُ لِوُلْدِ فَاطِمَةَ فَقَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ "إِنَّهَا لاَ تَقَعُ مِنْ وُلْدِ فَاطِمَةَ عَلَيْهَا اَلسَّلاَمُ وَ هِيَ تَقَعُ مِنْ هَذَا اَلرَّجُلِ وَ لَهُ عِيَالٌ".
