Sunan an-Nasa'i
كتاب الوصايا
The Book of Wills
" مَا حَقُّ امْرِئٍ مُسْلِمٍ لَهُ شَىْءٌ يُوصَى فِيهِ يَبِيتُ لَيْلَتَيْنِ إِلاَّ وَوَصِيَّتُهُ مَكْتُوبَةٌ عِنْدَهُ "
"It is not befitting for a Muslim who has anything concerning which a will should be made, to abide for two nights without having a written will with him."
