It was mentioned in Ayesha's presence that Ali had been appointed as the executor of the Prophet's will. She said, "When did he ever make a will to him? I was supporting him against my chest," or she said, "in my lap, when he called for the basin. Then he slumped down in my lap and I did not even realize he had died. So when did he make a will to him?"
