Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ أَخْبَرَنَا سَعِيدٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ أَبِي عَرُوبَةَ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ شَهْرِ بْنِ حَوْشَبٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ غَنْمٍ أَنَّ عَمْرَو بْنَ خَارِجَةَ الْخُشَنِيَّ حَدَّثَهُمْ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ خَطَبَهُمْ عَلَى رَاحِلَتِهِ وَإِنَّ رَاحِلَتَهُ لَتَقْصَعُ بِجِرَّتِهَا وَإِنَّ لُعَابَهَا لَيَسِيلُ بَيْنَ كَتِفَيَّ فَقَالَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ قَسَمَ لِكُلِّ إِنْسَانٍ نَصِيبَهُ مِنْ الْمِيرَاثِ وَلَا تَجُوزُ وَصِيَّةٌ لِلْوَارِثِ الْوَلَدُ لِلْفِرَاشِ وَلِلْعَاهِرِ الْحَجَرُ أَلَا وَمَنْ ادَّعَى إِلَى غَيْرِ أَبِيهِ أَوْ تَوَلَّى غَيْرَ مَوَالِيهِ فَعَلَيْهِ لَعْنَةُ اللَّهِ وَالْمَلَائِكَةِ وَالنَّاسِ أَجْمَعِينَ لَا يَقْبَلُ اللَّهُ مِنْهُ صَرْفًا وَلَا عَدْلًا أَوْ عَدْلًا وَلَا صَرْفًا.
English Translation
Yazid ibn Harun told us: Sa'id — namely ibn Abi Arubah — informed us, from Qatadah, from Shahr ibn Hawshab, from Abd al-Rahman ibn Ghanm, that Amr ibn Kharijah al-Khushani told them that the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, addressed them while upon his mount, and his mount was chewing its cud and its saliva was flowing between my shoulders, and he said: 'Indeed, God, Mighty and Majestic, has allotted to every person his share of the inheritance, and no bequest is valid for the heir. The child belongs to the marriage-bed, and for the adulterer is the stone. Indeed, whoever claims descent from other than his father, or takes as patron other than his rightful patrons, upon him is the curse of God, the angels, and all the people together. God will not accept from him ransom or compensation' — or 'compensation or ransom.'
