Fatima and Al-ʿAbbas came to Abu Bakr, claiming their inheritance of the Prophet's land of Fadak and his share from Khaibar. Abu Bakr said, "I heard the Prophet ﷺ saying, 'Our property is not inherited, and whatever we leave is to be given in charity. But the family of Muhammad can take their sustenance from this property.' By Allah, I would love to do good to the Kith and kin of Allah's Apostle rather than to my own Kith and kin."  

أَنَّ فَاطِمَةَ عَلَيْهَا السَّلاَمُ وَالْعَبَّاسَ أَتَيَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ يَلْتَمِسَانِ مِيرَاثَهُمَا أَرْضَهُ مِنْ فَدَكٍ وَسَهْمَهُ مِنْ خَيْبَرَ فَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَقُولُ لاَ نُورَثُ مَا تَرَكْنَا صَدَقَةٌ إِنَّمَا يَأْكُلُ آلُ مُحَمَّدٍ فِي هَذَا الْمَالِ وَاللَّهِ لَقَرَابَةُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَحَبُّ إِلَىَّ أَنْ أَصِلَ مِنْ قَرَابَتِي  

Fatimah and al-'Abbas came to Abu Bakr seeking their inheritance from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. At that time they were asking for his land at Fadak and his share of Khaibar. Abu Bakr said to them: I heard the Messenger Allah ﷺ say: ʿOur (Prophets property is not to be inherited and whatever we leave behind is charity. Rather the family of Muhammad may take their provision from these properties.” By Allah, I will not change any of the charity of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ from how it was at the time of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and I will do the same with it as the Messenger of Allah ﷺ did.  

أنَّ فاطِمَةَ والعَبّاسَ أتَيا أبا بَكْرٍ، يَلْتَمِسانِ مِيراثَهُما مِن رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ، وهُما حِينَئِذٍ يَطْلُبانِ أرْضَهُ مِن فَدَكَ، وسَهْمَهُ مِن خَيْبَرَ، فَقالَ لَهُمْ أبُو بَكْرٍ: إنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ: «لا نُورَثُ، ما تَرَكْنا صَدَقَةٌ، إنَّما يَأْكُلُ آلُ مُحَمَّدٍ فِي هَذا المالِ» وإنِّي واللهِ لا أدَعُ أمْرًا رَأيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَصْنَعُهُ فِيهِ إلّا صَنَعْتُهُ  

I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: ʿWe (Prophets) are not to be inherited from and whatever we leave behind is charity. Rather the family of Muhammad; may take their provision from this wealth.ʿ By Allah, I will not leave anything that I saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ do with it but I will do it too.  

أَنَّ فَاطِمَةَ وَالْعَبَّاسَ أَتَيَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ يَلْتَمِسَانِ مِيرَاثَهُمَا مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَهُمَا حِينَئِذٍ يَطْلُبَانِ أَرْضَهُ مِنْ فَدَكَ وَسَهْمَهُ مِنْ خَيْبَرَ فَقَالَ لَهُمَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ إِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ لَا نُورَثُ مَا تَرَكْنَا صَدَقَةٌ وَإِنَّمَا يَأْكُلُ آلُ مُحَمَّدٍ ﷺ فِي هَذَا الْمَالِ وَإِنِّي وَاللهِ لَا أَدَعُ أَمْرًا رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَصْنَعُهُ فِيهِ إِلَّا صَنَعْتُهُ
