1150 صحيح حديث عَائِشَةَ أُمِّ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ، أَنَّ فَاطِمَةَ عَلَيْهَا السَّلاَمُ، ابْنَةَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، سَأَلَتْ أَبَا بَكْرٍ الصِّدِّيقَ، بَعْدَ وَفَاةِ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، أَنْ يَقْسِمَ لَهَا مِيرَاثَهَا مَا تَرَكَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، مِمَّا أَفَاءَ اللهُ عَلَيْهِ فَقَالَ لَهَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ: إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ: لاَ نُورَثُ، مَا تَرَكْنَا صَدَقَةٌ فَغَضِبَتْ فَاطِمَةُ بِنْتُ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَهَجَرَتْ أَبَا بَكْرٍ، فَلَمْ تَزَلْ مُهَاجِرَتَهُ حَتَّى تُوُفِّيَتْ وَعَاشَتْ بَعْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ سِتَّةَ أَشْهُرٍ قَالَتْ: وَكَانَتْ فَاطِمَةُ تَسْأَلُ أَبَا بَكْرٍ نَصِيبَهَا مِمَّا تَرَكَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنْ خَيْبَرَ وَفَدَكٍ، وَصَدَقَتِهِ ُ بَالْمَدِينَةِ فَأَبى أَبُو بَكْرٍ عَلَيْهَا ذَلِكَ وَقَالَ: لَسْتُ تَارِكًا شَيْئًا كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَعْمَلُ بِهِ إِلاَّ عَمِلْتُ بِهِ، فَإِنِّي أَخْشى، إِنْ تَرَكْتُ شَيْئًا مِنْ أَمْرِهِ، أَنْ أَزِيغَ فَأَمَّا صَدَقَتُهُ بِالْمَدِينَةِ فَدَفَعَهَا عُمَرُ إِلَى عَلِيٍّ وَعَبَّاسٍ فَأَمَّا خَيْبَرُ وَفَدَكٌ فَأَمْسَكَهَا عُمَرُ، وَقَالَ: هُمَا صَدَقَةُ رَسُولِ اللهِ كَانتَا لِحُقُوقِهِ الَّتِي تَعْرُوهُ وَنَوَائِبِهِ، وَأَمْرُهُمَا إِلَى مَنْ وَلِيَ الأَمْرَ فَهُمَا عَلَى ذلِكَ إِلَى الْيَوْمِ
Umm al-Mu’minin Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) narrated that the daughter of the Noble Messenger (peace be upon him), Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her), after the death of the Prophet (peace be upon him), demanded from Abu Bakr al-Siddiq (may Allah be pleased with him) that she be given her share of inheritance from the property which Allah had given to the Prophet (peace be upon him) as ‘fay’ (such as Fadak, etc.). Abu Bakr al-Siddiq (may Allah be pleased with him) said to her that the Prophet (peace be upon him) had said (during his lifetime) that our (the group of Prophets’) inheritance is not distributed; whatever we leave behind is charity. Lady Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her) became angry upon hearing this and stopped meeting Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him), and did not meet him until her death. She lived for six months after the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him). Aisha al-Siddiqa (may Allah be pleased with her) said that Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her) had demanded from Abu Bakr al-Siddiq (may Allah be pleased with him) the inheritance of the charity of Khaybar, Fadak, and Madinah of the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him). Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) refused this. He said that I cannot leave any action which the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) used to do during his lifetime. I will certainly do every such action. I fear that if I leave any action of the Prophet (peace be upon him), I will deviate from the truth. (Aisha, may Allah be pleased with her, said that) then the charity of Madinah of the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) was given by Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) to Ali and Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them) during his caliphate. However, the properties of Khaybar and Fadak were withheld by Umar (may Allah be pleased with him), and he said that both of these are the charity of the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) and were kept for those rights which arise temporarily or for temporary incidents. These properties will remain under the authority of the person who is the caliph of the time. (Zuhri said) Thus, the administration of these two properties continues in this manner (through the government) to this day.
