Chapter 22 · Oaths and Vows (Kitab Al-Aiman Wa Al-Nudhur)مَا جَاءَ فِيمَنْ مَاتَ وَعَلَيْهِ صِيَامٌ صَامَ عَنْهُ وَلِيُّهُ
حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ الْأَعْمَشَ، ح وحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَلَاءِ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، الْمَعْنَى، عَنْ مُسْلِمٍ الْبَطِينِ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ: أَنَّ امْرَأَةً جَاءَتْ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَتْ: إِنَّهُ كَانَ عَلَى أُمِّهَا صَوْمُ شَهْرٍ، أَفَأَقْضِيهِ عَنْهَا ؟ فَقَالَ: لَوْ كَانَ عَلَى أُمِّكِ دَيْنٌ، أَكُنْتِ قَاضِيَتَهُ ؟، قَالَتْ: نَعَمْ، قَالَ: فَدَيْنُ اللَّهِ أَحَقُّ أَنْ يُقْضَى .

If A Person Dies Owing Fasts, His Heir Should Fast On His Behalf
A woman came to the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم and said (to him) that one month's fast was due from her mother who had died. May I fulfill them on her behalf? He asked: Suppose some debt was due from your mother, would you pay it ? She replied: Yes. He said: So the debt due to Allah is the one which most deserves to be paid.
