Musnad Abi Ya'la 6752 — Sayyidah Fatimah came to Sayyiduna Abu Bakr
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ صَالِحٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ فُضَيْلٍ ، عَنِ الْوَلِيدِ بْنِ جُمَيْعٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي الطُّفَيْلِ قَالَ : جَاءَتْ فَاطِمَةُ إِلَى أَبِي بَكْرٍ فَقَالَتْ : يَا خَلِيفَةَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ، أَنْتَ وَرِثْتَ رَسُولَ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - أَمْ أَهْلُهُ ؟ قَالَ : بَلْ أَهْلُهُ ، قَالَتْ : فَمَا بَالُ سَهْمِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ؟ قَالَ : إِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - يَقُولُ : إِذَا أَطْعَمَ اللهُ نَبِيًّا طُعْمَةً ، ثُمَّ قَبَضَهُ ، جَعَلَهُ لِلَّذِي يَقُومُ بَعْدَهُ ، فَرَأَيْتُ أَنْ أَرُدَّهُ عَلَى الْمُسْلِمِينَ ، فَقَالَتْ : أَنْتَ وَرَسُولُ اللهِ أَعْلَمُ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu al-Tufayl (may Allah be pleased with him) that Sayyidah Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her) came to Sayyiduna Abu Bakr al-Siddiq (may Allah be pleased with him) and asked: "O Caliph of the Messenger of Allah, did you inherit from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), or did his family?" He replied: "Rather, his family are his heirs." She asked: "Then what has become of the share of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) (from Khaybar and Fadak)?" Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: 'When Allah grants a Prophet some provision (as fay' wealth) and then takes his soul, He assigns it to the one who takes charge (of the affairs of state) after him.' So I considered it right to return it to the Muslims at large for their welfare." Sayyidah Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: "You and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) know best."
