It is narrated from Aswad that people mentioned before Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) made a bequest in favor of Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) (that he would be the caliph after the Prophet's passing). She said: At what time did the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) make a bequest in favor of Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him)? I was supporting the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) against my chest, or she said: I had the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) in my lap, he asked for a vessel of water, and his soul departed in my lap, and I did not even realize the moment of his passing. Now, when did the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) make a bequest in favor of Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him)?
