The Chapters on Gifts

Sahih (authentic)by Al-Albani

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رُمْحٍ، أَنْبَأَنَا اللَّيْثُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقُولُ ‏ "‏ مَنْ أَعْمَرَ رَجُلاً عُمْرَى لَهُ وَلِعَقِبِهِ فَقَدْ قَطَعَ قَوْلُهُ حَقَّهُ فِيهَا فَهِيَ لِمَنْ أُعْمِرَ وَلِعَقِبِهِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏

It was narrated that Jabir said:“I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) say: 'Whoever gives a lifelong grant to a man, it belongs to him (the recipient) and to his heirs. His (the giver's) words put an end to his right to it, and it belongs to the one to whom it was given for life and to his heirs.”
EN
Rapporté par Jabir : J’ai entendu le Messager d’Allah (ﷺ) dire : « Celui qui fait un don à vie à quelqu’un, cela appartient à cette personne et à ses héritiers. Les paroles du donateur mettent fin à son droit sur ce bien, et il appartient à celui à qui il a été donné pour la vie, ainsi qu’à ses héritiers. »
