Arabic hadith text

أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ اسْتَفْتَى سَعْدُ بْنُ عُبَادَةَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فِي نَذْرٍ كَانَ عَلَى أُمِّهِ فَتُوُفِّيَتْ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَقْضِيَهُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏"‏ اقْضِهِ عَنْهَا ‏"‏ ‏.‏

Translation

Qutaybah reported to us; he said: al-Layth narrated to us, from Ibn Shihab, from ʿUbaydullah ibn ʿAbdullah, from Ibn ʿAbbas, who said: Saʿd ibn ʿUbadah sought a ruling from the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, about a vow his mother had made. She died before fulfilling it, so the Messenger of Allah said: ‘Fulfill it on her behalf.’
