Abu Talha reported: 'Umar bin al-Khattab (RA) delivered a sermon on Friday and made a mention of Allah's Apostle ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) and he also made a mention of Abu Bakr (RA) and then said: I do not leave behind me any problem more difficult than that of Kalala. I did not refer to Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) more repeatedly than in case of the problem of Kalala, and he (the Holy Prophet) never showed more annoyance to me than in regard to this problem, so much so that he struck my chest with his fingers and said: 'Umar, does the verse revealed in summer season, at the end of Sura al-Nisa' not suffice you? Hadrat 'Umar (then) said: If I live I would give such verdict about (Kalala) that everyone would be able to decide whether he reads the Qur'an or he does not.

This hadith has been narrated on the authority of Qatada with the same chain of transmitters.

Al-Bara' (RA) reported that the last verse revealed in the Holy Qur'an is: "They ask thee for a religious verdict; say: Allah gives you a religious verdict about Kalala (the person who has neither parents nor children)" (iv 177).

Abu Ishaq said that he heard al-Bara' bin 'Azib (RA) say: The last verse revealed (in the Holy Quran) is that pertaining to Kalala, and the last sura revealed is Sura al-Bara'at.

Abu Ishaq said that he heard al-Bara' bin 'Azib (RA) say: The last complete sura revealed (in the Holy Qur'an) is Sura Tauba (i e. al-Bara'at, ix.), and the last verse revealed is that pertaining to Kalala.

Aba Ishaq reported this hadith on the authority of al-Bara' (RA) with a slight variation of words, viz. the last sura that was revealed complete.

Al-Bara' (RA) reported that the last verse revealed was: "They ask of thee religious verdict.." (iv. 177).

Abu Hurairah (RA) reported that when the body of a dead person having burden of debt upon him was brought to Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) he would ask whether he had left property enough to clear off his debt, and if the property left had been sufficient for that (purpose), he observed funeral prayer for him, otherwise he said (to his companions): You observe prayer for your companion. But when Allah opened the gateways of victory for him, he said: I am nearer to the believers than themselves, so if anyone dies leaving a debt, its payment is my responsibility, and if anyone leaves a property, it goes to his heirs.

This hadith has been narrated on the authority of al-Zuhri through another chain of transmitters.

Abu Hurairah (RA) reported Allah's Apostle ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) having said this: By Him in Whose Hand is the life of Muhammad, there is no believer on the earth with whom I am not the nearest among all the people. He who amongst you (dies) and leaves a debt, I am there to pay it, and he who amongst you (dies) leaving behind children I am there to look after them. And he who amongst you leaves behind property, that is for the inheritor whoever he is.
