6730. Narrated Urwa: 'Āishah رضي الله عنها عنها said, "When Allāh's Messenger ﷺ died, his wives intended to send 'Uthmān to Abū Bakr asking him for their share of the inheritance." Then 'Āishah said to them, "Didn't Allāh's Messenger ﷺ say, 'Our (Messengers') property is not to be inherited, and whatever we leave is Sadaqa (to be spent in charity)."

Arabic text

6730 - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَسْلَمَةَ، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا: أَنَّ أَزْوَاجَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حِينَ تُوُفِّيَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، أَرَدْنَ أَنْ يَبْعَثْنَ عُثْمَانَ إِلَى أَبِي بَكْرٍ يَسْأَلْنَهُ مِيرَاثَهُنَّ، فَقَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ: أَلَيْسَ قَدْ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «لاَ نُورَثُ، مَا تَرَكْنَا صَدَقَةٌ»
