Translation text: وقال الثلث والثلث كثير او قال كبير  And he said a third and a third is a lot, or he said it is big (i.e., as a charity from the wealth of the deceased). وفي هذا دليل على انه إذا نقص عن الثلث فهو أحسن وأكمل  And there is evidence in this that if it is less than a third, it is better and more complete.  ولهذا قال ابن عباس رضي الله عنهما لو ان الناس غضوا من الثلث  الى الربع لان النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم قال  الثلث والثلث كثير Therefore, Ibn ‘Abbas said “if people would reduce from third to fourth (part for making a will of their property), for Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said: So far as the third (part) is concerned, it is quite substantial.” وقال ابو بكر رضي الله عنه ارضى ما رضيه الله لنفسه يعني الخمس فاوصى بالخمس رضي الله عنه   And Abu Bakr said: I am pleased with what Allah is pleased for Himself, meaning the fifth, so he bequeathed the fifth, may Allah be pleased with him.  وبهذا نعرف ان عمل الناس اليوم وكونهم يوصون بالثلث   خلاف الأولى وان كان هو جائزا  And by this we know that what people do today, and the fact that they bequeath a third is contrary to what’s preferred, although it is permissible. لكن الافضل  ان يكون ادنى من الثلث اما الربع او الخمس  However, it’s best to be less than a third, either a quarter or a fifth.    قال فقهانا رحمهم الله والافضل ان يوصي  بالخمس لا يزيد عليه اقتداء بابي بكر الصديق رضي الله عنه Our Fuqaha (scholars of Islamic Jurisprudence), may Allah have mercy on them said that it is better for him to bequeath a fifth, not exceeding it, following the example of Abu Bakr Al-Siddiq, may Allah be pleased with him. ----------------------------------------------------- Rabbaniyeen ربانيين 🔴اليوتيوب🔴👇 https://youtube.com/channel/UCSZQ94R_9fXNumssaa5BAkg 🔴الانستجرام🔴👇 https://www.instagram.com/rabbaniyeen/ 🔴التيليغرام🔴👇 https://t.me/Rabbaniyeen
