5022. Narrated Ṭalḥa: I asked 'Abdullāh bin Abī Aufa, "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 Allāh's Book (the Qur'an)."

Arabic text

5022 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ، حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكُ بْنُ مِغْوَلٍ، حَدَّثَنَا طَلْحَةُ، قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ أَبِي أَوْفَى: آوْصَى النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ؟ فَقَالَ: لاَ، فَقُلْتُ: كَيْفَ كُتِبَ عَلَى النَّاسِ الوَصِيَّةُ أُمِرُوا بِهَا وَلَمْ يُوصِ؟ قَالَ: «أَوْصَى بِكِتَابِ اللَّهِ»
