Best of you

12. "The best of your garments are those which are white; shroud your dead in them and clothe your living with them. The best of that which you apply to your eyelids is antimony causing the eyelashes to grow and sharpening the eyesight." [Ibn Hibbân, Sahîh]

Quotes to remember

12. `A’ishah (ra) narrated that the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said, “The most hated person with Allah is the most quarrelsome person.” (al-Bukhari)

Salafs sayings

It is reported that Imām Al-Zuhrī – Allāh have mercy on him – said:

Those of our scholars who went before us used to say,”Adherence to the Sunnah is salvation, but knowledge is taken away quickly, so the revival of knowledge means the stability of religion and worldly affairs, and the loss of knowledge means the loss of all that.”

One is Bound by the Provision Made by the Deceased in His Will

Question:

Prior to his death, a man bequeathed a quarter of his wealth to be divided as follows: 1) An animal to be slaughtered for him every year. 2) Charities for the poor and needy. 3) Righteous works and charitable projects. - the wealth from which he bequeathed a quarter amounts to some real estate and some small balances in a number of banks. My question is: Is it permissible of a mosque only, or are we bound by the provisions mentioned by the one who made the bequest only?
Answer:

It is obligatory in a will such as this to be bound by the provision mentioned by the one who made the bequest. The same for all legal wills, it is obligatory to be bound by the provisions mentioned by the one who made the bequest and to implement them as much as one is able. And Allaah is the Granter of success.
