The Chapters on Wills

Sahih (authentic)by Al-Albani

حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ وَدِدْتُ أَنَّ النَّاسَ، غَضُّوا مِنَ الثُّلُثِ إِلَى الرُّبُعِ لأَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏ "‏ الثُّلُثُ كَبِيرٌ - أَوْ كَثِيرٌ - ‏"‏ ‏.‏

It was narrated that Ibn Abbas said:“I would like the people to reduce (the will) from one third to one quarter, because the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: 'One third is a lot.'”
EN
Rapporté par Ibn Abbas : “J’aimerais que les gens réduisent (le testament) d’un tiers à un quart, car le Messager d’Allah (ﷺ) a dit : ‘Un tiers, c’est beaucoup.’”
