Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مَرْوَانَ، مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ الْعُثْمَانِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ أَبِي حَازِمٍ، عَنِ الْعَلاَءِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ رَجُلاً، سَأَلَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ إِنَّ أَبِي مَاتَ وَتَرَكَ مَالاً وَلَمْ يُوصِ فَهَلْ يُكَفِّرُ عَنْهُ أَنْ تَصَدَّقْتُ عَنْهُ قَالَ ‏"‏ نَعَمْ ‏"‏ ‏.‏

Abū Marwān Muḥammad ibn ʿUthmān al-ʿUthmānī narrated to us: ʿAbd al-ʿAzīz ibn Abī Ḥāzim narrated to us, from al-ʿAlāʾ ibn ʿAbd al-Raḥmān, from his father, from Abū Hurayrah, that a man asked the Messenger of God, peace and blessings be upon him: “My father died and left wealth but made no bequest. Will it atone for him if I give charity on his behalf?” He said, “Yes.”
