حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنْ طَلْحَةَ بْنِ عَمْرٍو، عَنْ عَطَاءٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏ "‏ إِنَّ اللَّهَ تَصَدَّقَ عَلَيْكُمْ عِنْدَ وَفَاتِكُمْ بِثُلُثِ أَمْوَالِكُمْ زِيَادَةً لَكُمْ فِي أَعْمَالِكُمْ ‏"‏ ‏.‏

ʿAlī ibn Muḥammad narrated to us: Wakīʿ narrated to us, from Ṭalḥah ibn ʿAmr, from ʿAṭāʾ, from Abū Hurayrah, who said: The Messenger of God, peace and blessings be upon him, said: “At the time of your deaths, God has granted you the option to bequeath one-third of your property, as an increase in your deeds.”
