Hadith 6349

عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ أَنَّ فَاطِمَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا قَالَتْ لِأَبِي بَكْرٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ مَنْ يَرِثُكَ إِذَا مِتَّ قَالَ وَلَدِي وَأَهْلِي قَالَتْ فَمَا لَنَا لَا نَرِثُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ إِنَّ النَّبِيَّ لَا يُورَثُ وَلَكِنِّي أَعُولُ مَنْ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَعُولُ وَأُنْفِقُ عَلَى مَنْ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُنْفِقُ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Salamah (may Allah be pleased with him) that Sayyidah Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her) asked Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him): When you pass away, who will be your heir? He replied: My children and my wife. Sayyidah Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: Then why can we not inherit from the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)? He replied: Because the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said that indeed, a prophet is not inherited from. However, I (Abu Bakr) will take care of those whom the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to take care of, and I will spend on everyone upon whom the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to spend.
