3093. Abū Bakr said to her, "Allāh's Messenger ﷺ said, 'Our property will not be inherited, whatever we (i.e., Prophets) leave is Ṣadaqa (to be used for charity).'" Fāṭima, the daughter of Allāh's Messenger ﷺ got angry and stopped speaking to Abū Bakr, and continued assuming that attitude till she died. Fāṭima remained alive for six months after the death of Allāh's Messenger ﷺ. She used to ask Abū Bakr for her share from the property of Allāh's Messenger ﷺ which he left at Khaibar, and Fadak, and his property at Al-Madīna (devoted for charity). Abū Bakr refused to give her that property and said, "I will not leave anything Allāh's Messenger ﷺ used to do, because I am afraid that if I left something from all that which the Prophet ﷺ used to order, then I would go astray." (Later on) 'Umar gave the Prophet's property (of Ṣadaqa) at Al-Madīna to 'Alī and 'Abbās, but he withheld the properties of Khaibar and Fadak in his custody and said, "These two properties are the Ṣadaqa which Allāh's Messenger ﷺ used to use for his expenditures and urgent needs. Now, their management is to be entrusted to the ruler." (Az-Zuhri said, "They have been managed in this way till today.")

3093 - فَقَالَ لَهَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ: إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «لاَ نُورَثُ، مَا تَرَكْنَا صَدَقَةٌ»، فَغَضِبَتْ فَاطِمَةُ بِنْتُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَهَجَرَتْ أَبَا بَكْرٍ، فَلَمْ تَزَلْ مُهَاجِرَتَهُ حَتَّى تُوُفِّيَتْ، وَعَاشَتْ بَعْدَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ سِتَّةَ أَشْهُرٍ، قَالَتْ: وَكَانَتْ فَاطِمَةُ تَسْأَلُ أَبَا بَكْرٍ نَصِيبَهَا مِمَّا تَرَكَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنْ خَيْبَرَ، وَفَدَكٍ، وَصَدَقَتَهُ بِالْمَدِينَةِ، فَأَبَى أَبُو بَكْرٍ عَلَيْهَا ذَلِكَ، وَقَالَ: لَسْتُ تَارِكًا شَيْئًا، كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَعْمَلُ بِهِ إِلَّا عَمِلْتُ بِهِ، فَإِنِّي أَخْشَى إِنْ تَرَكْتُ شَيْئًا مِنْ أَمْرِهِ أَنْ أَزِيغَ فَأَمَّا صَدَقَتُهُ بِالْمَدِينَةِ فَدَفَعَهَا عُمَرُ إِلَى عَلِيٍّ، وَعَبَّاسٍ، وَأَمَّا خَيْبَرُ، وَفَدَكٌ، فَأَمْسَكَهَا عُمَرُ، وَقَالَ: هُمَا صَدَقَةُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، كَانَتَا لِحُقُوقِهِ الَّتِي تَعْرُوهُ وَنَوَائِبِهِ، وَأَمْرُهُمَا إِلَى مَنْ وَلِيَ الأَمْرَ، قَالَ: فَهُمَا عَلَى ذَلِكَ إِلَى اليَوْمِ، قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ: «اعْتَرَاكَ افْتَعَلْتَ مِنْ عَرَوْتُهُ، فَأَصَبْتُهُ وَمِنْهُ يَعْرُوهُ وَاعْتَرَانِي»
