حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْوَلِيدِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ: جَاءَتْ فَاطِمَةُ إِلَى أَبِي بَكْرٍ، فَقَالَتْ: مَنْ يَرِثُكَ؟ فَقَالَ: أَهْلِي وَوَلَدِي، فَقَالَتْ: مَا لِي لا أَرِثُ أَبِي؟ فَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم، يَقُولُ: لا نُورَثُ، وَلَكِنِّي أَعُولُ مَنْ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم، يَعُولُهُ، وَأُنْفِقُ عَلَى مَنْ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يُنْفِقُ عَلَيْهِ.

Abu Huraira said (may Allah be well pleased with him):
“Fatima came to Abu Bakr and said: ‘Who will inherit from you?’ He said: ‘My wives and my offspring,’ so she said: ‘Why should I not inherit from my father?’ Abu Bakr said: ‘I heard Allah’s Messenger say (ﷺ): “We will not be inherited from,” but I support those whom Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) used to support, and I provide for those for whom Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) used to provide.’”
that al-'Abbas and 'Ali came to 'Umar quarreling, each of them saying to his companion: “You are such-and-such, you are such-and-such!” 'Umar therefore said to Talha, az-Zubair, 'Abd ar-Rahman ibn 'Awf and Sa'd (may Allah the Exalted be well pleased with them): “I adjure you by Allah, have you heard Allah’s Messenger say (ﷺ): ‘Every possession of a Prophet (ﷺ) is a charitable donation, except what provides him with food. No one shall inherit from us!'"(This tradition is part of a longer story.)
Abu Huraira (may Allah be well pleased with him) reported:
"The Prophet (ﷺ) said (ﷺ): 'My legacy will not be distributed as gold coin, nor as silver coin. Whatever I leave beyond support for my wives and the provisions for my workman will be a charitable donation.'”
“I entered the presence of 'Umar, after which 'Abd ar- Rahman ibn 'Awf and Talha and Sa'd entered his presence, and 'Ali and al-'Abbas came in quarreling, so 'Umar said to them: ‘I adjure you by the One with whose permission the heaven and the earth exist, do you know that Allah’s Messenger said (ﷺ): 'We are not inherited from. Whatever we leave behind is a charitable donation'?"
Zirr ibn Hubaish reports that A’isha said (may Allah be well pleased with her):
“Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) did not leave behind a gold coin, nor a silver coin, nor a sheep, nor a camel.” Then he added, “And I suspect she said, 'nor a male and female slave.'”
