She informed him that Fatimah, daughter of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, sent word to Abu Bakr al-Siddiq asking him for her inheritance from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, from what Allah had granted him in Madinah and Fadak, and what remained of the one-fifth share of Khaybar.Abu Bakr replied, "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'We are not inherited from. Whatever we leave behind is charity. The family of Muhammad may only eat from this wealth.' By Allah, I will not change anything regarding the charity of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ from the state it was in during his lifetime. I will manage it exactly as the Messenger of Allah ﷺ managed it."So Abu Bakr
refused to give Fatimah, peace be upon her, anything from it.
حدثنا يزيد بن خالد بن عبد الله بن موهب الهمداني حدثنا الليث بن سعد عن عقيل بن خالد عن ابن شهاب عن عروة بن الزبير
أنها أخبرته أن فاطمة بنت رسول الله ﷺ أرسلت إلى أبي بكر الصديق رضي الله عنه تسأله ميراثها من رسول الله ﷺ مما أفاء الله عليه بالمدينة وفدك وما بقي من خمس خيبر فقال أبو بكر إن رسول الله ﷺ قال لا نورث ما تركنا صدقة إنما يأكل آل محمد من هذا المال وإني والله لا أغير شيئا من صدقة رسول الله ﷺ عن حالها التي كانت عليها في عهد رسول الله ﷺ فلأعملن فيها بما عمل به رسول الله ﷺ فأبى أبو بكر رضي الله عنه أن يدفع إلى فاطمة عليها السلام منها شيئا
