I asked ʿAbdullah bin Abu ʿAufa "Did the Prophet ﷺ make a will?" He replied, "No," I asked him, "How is it then that the making of a will has been enjoined on people, (or that they are ordered to make a will)?" He replied, "The Prophet ﷺ bequeathed Allah's Book (i.e. Qur'an).  

سَأَلْتُ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ أَبِي أَوْفَى ؓ هَلْ كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَوْصَى فَقَالَ لاَ فَقُلْتُ كَيْفَ كُتِبَ عَلَى النَّاسِ الْوَصِيَّةُ أَوْ أُمِرُوا بِالْوَصِيَّةِ قَالَ أَوْصَى بِكِتَابِ اللَّهِ  

I asked ʿAbdullah bin Abu ʿAufa "Did the Prophet ﷺ make a will? ' He replied, "No." I further asked, "How comes it that the making of a will was enjoined on the people or that they were ordered to make it? " He said, "The Prophet ﷺ made a will concerning Allah's Book."  

سَأَلْتُ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ أَبِي أَوْفَى ؓ أَوْصَى النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَقَالَ لاَ فَقُلْتُ كَيْفَ كُتِبَ عَلَى النَّاسِ الْوَصِيَّةُ أَوْ أُمِرُوا بِهَا قَالَ أَوْصَى بِكِتَابِ اللَّهِ  

I asked ʿAbdullah bin Abi ʿAufa, "Did the Prophet ﷺ make a will (to appoint his successor or bequeath wealth)?" He replied, "No." I said, "How is it prescribed then for the people to make wills, and they are ordered to do so while the Prophet ﷺ did not make any will?" He said, "He made a will wherein he recommended Allah's Book."  

سَأَلْتُ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ أَبِي أَوْفَى أَوْصَى النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَقَالَ لاَ فَقُلْتُ كَيْفَ كُتِبَ عَلَى النَّاسِ الْوَصِيَّةُ أُمِرُوا بِهَا وَلَمْ يُوصِ قَالَ أَوْصَى بِكِتَابِ اللَّهِ  

"I asked Ibn Abi Awfa: 'Did the Messenger of Allah leave a will?' He said: 'No.' I said: 'How come it is prescribed for the Muslims to make wills?' He said: 'He left instructions urging the Muslims to adhere to the Book of Allah.'"  

سَأَلْتُ ابْنَ أَبِي أَوْفَى أَوْصَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ لاَ قُلْتُ كَيْفَ كَتَبَ عَلَى الْمُسْلِمِينَ الْوَصِيَّةَ قَالَ أَوْصَى بِكِتَابِ اللَّهِ  

[Machine] I asked Abdullah ibn Abi Awfa, did the Messenger of Allah ﷺ leave a will? He said no. So I asked, how did he command the believers to make a will if he himself did not leave one? He said, he commanded it in the Book of Allah.  

قُلْتُ لِعَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ أَبِي أَوْفَى أَوْصَى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ؟ قَالَ لَا قُلْتُ فَكَيْفَ أَمَرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ بِالْوَصِيَّةِ وَلَمْ يُوصِ؟ قَالَ أَوْصَى بِكِتَابِ اللهِ ﷻ  

I asked 'Abdullah b. Abu Aufa whether Messenger of Allah ﷺ had made any will (in regard to his property). He said: NO. I said: Then why has making of will been made necessary for the Muslims, or why were they commanded to make will? Thereupon he said: He made the will according to the Book of Allah, the Exalted and Majestic. (Using translation from Muslim 1634a)  

سَأَلْتُ عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ أَبِي أَوْفَى هَلْ أَوْصَى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ؟ قَالَ لَا قُلْتُ فَلِمَ كُتِبَ عَلَى الْمُسْلِمِينَ الْوَصِيَّةُ أَوْ لِمَ أُمِرُوا بِالْوَصِيَّةِ؟ قَالَ أَوْصَى بِكِتَابِ اللهِ ﷻ  

[Machine] I asked Abdullah bin Abi Awfa, did the Prophet ﷺ recommend anything? He replied, no. So I asked, then how did the Prophet ﷺ instruct the Muslims regarding wills? He said, he instructed through the Book of Allah.  

قُلْتُ لِعَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ أَبِي أَوْفَى أَوْصَى النَّبِيُّ ﷺ بِشَيْءٍ؟ قَالَ لَا قُلْتُ فَكَيْفَ أَمْرَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ بِالْوَصِيَّةِ؟ قَالَ أَوْصَى بِكِتَابِ اللهِ ﷻ  

[Machine] I asked Abdullah bin Abi Aufa, "Did the Messenger of Allah ﷺ leave any will?" He replied, "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not leave anything without giving instructions about it." I asked, "How then does he instruct the people about writing wills?" He said, "He gave instruction with the Book of Allah."  

سَأَلْتُ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ أَبِي أَوْفَى «هَلْ أَوْصَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ؟ قَالَ مَا تَرَكَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ شَيْئًا يُوصِي فِيهِ قُلْتُ فَكَيْفَ يَأْمُرُ النَّاسَ بِالْوَصِيَّةِ؟ قَالَ » أَوْصَى بِكِتَابِ اللَّهِ «  

"I asked Ibn Abi Awfa: 'Did the Messenger of Allah leave a will?' He said: 'No.' I said: 'How come it is prescribed for the Muslims to make wills?' He said: 'He left instructions urging the Muslims to adhere to the Book of Allah.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3620)  

سَأَلْتُ ابْنَ أَبِي أَوْفَى أَوْصَى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ؟ قَالَ لَا قُلْتُ كَيْفَ كَتَبَ عَلَى الْمُسْلِمِينَ الْوَصِيَّةَ؟ قَالَ أَوْصَى بِكِتَابِ اللهِ  

[Machine] I asked Abdullah bin Abu Awfa, "Did the Messenger of Allah ﷺ give any will?" He replied, "No." I said, "But isn't it prescribed for people to write a will?" He said, "He advised us to adhere to the Book of Allah." And in the narration of As-Sulami, it is mentioned, "So how did he write (his will)?"  

سَأَلْتُ عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ أَبِي أَوْفَى هَلْ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَوْصَى؟ قَالَ لَا قال قُلْتُ فَقَدْ كُتِبَ عَلَى النَّاسِ الْوَصِيَّةُ أَوْ قَالَ أُمِرُوا بِالْوَصِيَّةِ قَالَ أَوْصَى بِكِتَابِ اللهِ ﷻ وَفِي رِوَايَةِ السُّلَمِيِّ فَكَيْفَ كَتَبَ؟
