He said: "Then 'Aishah said: 'So may Allāh give your father drink from the Salsabil of Paradise" intending 'Abdur-Rahmān bin 'Awf.[2] And he had maintained ties with the wives of the Prophet ﷺ with property that had been sold for forty-thousand. (Hasan)

Commentary
As the wives of the Prophet ﷺ could not be his heir after his death, so the Prophet said that he was worried about his wives, how the people will treat them, how they would take care of their needs and sustenance, so 'Abdur-Rahman bin 'Awf ﷺ left a will of a garden for the wives of the Mothers of the Believers. The price of this garden is said to be forty-thousand Dīnār or four-hundred thousand Dirham.
