Can the founder of an endowment have the benefit of his endowment?
حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ، حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكٌ، عَنْ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ، عَنِ الأَعْرَجِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم رَأَى رَجُلاً يَسُوقُ بَدَنَةً، فَقَالَ " ارْكَبْهَا ". قَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّهَا بَدَنَةٌ. قَالَ " ارْكَبْهَا، وَيْلَكَ ". فِي الثَّانِيَةِ أَوْ فِي الثَّالِثَةِ.
Narrated Abu Huraira: Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) saw a man driving a Badana and said to him, "Ride on it," and on the second or the third time he added, "Woe to you."
