2974. Abū Hurairah narrated the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ as saying: "None of my heirs will divide any Dinārs. Whatever I leave after the expenses for my wives and my employees will be Sadaqah (charity)." (Saḥīh) Abū Dāwūd said: "Expenses for my employees" means workers or laborers on the land.

Arabic text

2974 - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَسْلَمَةَ، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ، عَنِ الْأَعْرَجِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «لَا تَقْتَسِمُ وَرَثَتِي دِينَارًا، مَا تَرَكْتُ بَعْدَ نَفَقَةِ نِسَائِي، وَمُؤْنَةِ عَامِلِي فَهُوَ صَدَقَةٌ»، قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ: " مُؤْنَةُ عَامِلِي: يَعْنِي أَكَرَةَ الْأَرْضِ "
