5598 - وَ رَوَى مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ أَبَانِ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اَلرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَنْ حُمْرَانَ قَالَ : سَأَلْتُهُ عَنِ اَلسُّكْنَى وَ اَلْعُمْرَى فَقَالَ "اَلنَّاسُ فِيهِ عِنْدَ شُرُوطِهِمْ إِنْ كَانَ شَرَطَ حَيَاتَهُ فَهُوَ حَيَاتَهُ وَ إِنْ كَانَ لِعَقِبِهِ فَهُوَ لِعَقِبِهِ كَمَا شَرَطَ حَتَّى يَفْنَوْا ثُمَّ تُرَدُّ إِلَى صَاحِبِ اَلدَّارِ".
Hadith.5598 - Muhammad ibn Abi Umayr narrated from Aban ibn Uthman from Abdur Rahman ibn Abi Abdullah from Humran who said: I asked Imam (as) about Al-sukna (residential right) and Al-umra (life estate). Imam (as) replied: "People are bound by their conditions. If he stipulated it for his lifetime, then it is for his lifetime. If he stipulated it for his descendants, then it is for his descendants as stipulated until they perish, after which it returns to the owner of the house."
