Hadith.5481 - Al-Hasan bin Mahbub narrated from Muhammad bin Marid who said
I asked Abu Abdullah (as) about a man who made a will to another man, instructing him to free a soul (a slave) for six hundred dirhams from his one-third share of the inheritance. However, the executor instead gave the six hundred dirhams to a man to perform Hajj on behalf of the deceased.
Abu Abdullah (as) said: "I believe the executor must personally pay six hundred dirhams from his own wealth and fulfill what the deceased had willed by freeing a soul."
5481 - وَ رَوَى اَلْحَسَنُ بْنُ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مَارِدٍ قَالَ
سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنْ رَجُلٍ أَوْصَى إِلَى رَجُلٍ وَ أَمَرَهُ أَنْ يُعْتِقَ عَنْهُ نَسَمَةً بِسِتِّمِائَةِ دِرْهَمٍ مِنْ ثُلُثِهِ فَانْطَلَقَ اَلْوَصِيُّ فَأَعْطَى اَلسِّتَّمِائَةِ رَجُلاً يَحُجُّ بِهَا عَنْهُ فَقَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ "أَرَى أَنْ يَغْرَمَ اَلْوَصِيُّ سِتَّمِائَةِ دِرْهَمٍ مِنْ مَالِهِ وَ يَجْعَلَهَا فِيمَا أَوْصَى بِهِ اَلْمَيِّتُ فِي نَسَمَةٍ ".
