The Prophet ﷺ said to me, "I will give you so much (the Prophet ﷺ pointed thrice with his hands) when funds of Bahrain will come to me." But the Prophet ﷺ died before the money reached him. (When it came) Abu Bakr ordered an announcer to announce that whoever had a money claim on the Prophet ﷺ or was promised to be given something, should come to Abu Bakr. I went to Abu Bakr and told him that the Prophet ﷺ had promised to give me so much. On that Abu Bakr gave me three handfuls (of money).
لِي النَّبِيُّ ﷺ لَوْ جَاءَ مَالُ الْبَحْرَيْنِ أَعْطَيْتُكَ هَكَذَا ثَلاَثًا فَلَمْ يَقْدَمْ حَتَّى تُوُفِّيَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَأَمَرَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ مُنَادِيًا فَنَادَى مَنْ كَانَ لَهُ عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ عِدَةٌ أَوْ دَيْنٌ فَلْيَأْتِنَا فَأَتَيْتُهُ فَقُلْتُ إِنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ وَعَدَنِي فَحَثَى لِي ثَلاَثًا
