عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ - رضي اللَّه عنهمَا - أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ: «مَا حَقُّ امْرِئٍ مُسْلِمٍ لَهُ شَيْءٌ يُوصِي فِيهِ، يَبِيتُ لَيْلَتَيْنِ إِلَّا وَوَصِيَّتُهُ مَكْتُوبَةٌ عِنْدَهُ»



‘Abdullāh ibn ‘Umar narrated that God’s Messenger (peace be upon him) said:

It is not right for a Muslim person who has something he wishes to give as a bequest to stay two nights without having his will already written.
