حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ الْجَرَّاحِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ الْمُغِيرَةِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ جَمَعَ عُمَرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ بَنِي مَرْوَانَ حِينَ اسْتُخْلِفَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَتْ لَهُ فَدَكُ فَكَانَ يُنْفِقُ مِنْهَا وَيَعُودُ مِنْهَا عَلَى صَغِيرِ بَنِي هَاشِمٍ وَيُزَوِّجُ مِنْهَا أَيِّمَهُمْ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَإِنَّ فَاطِمَةَ سَأَلَتْهُ أَنْ يَجْعَلَهَا لَهَا فَأَبَى فَكَانَتْ كَذَلِكَ فِي حَيَاةِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَتَّى مَضَى لِسَبِيلِهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَلَمَّا أَنْ وُلِّيَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ عَمِلَ فِيهَا بِمَا عَمِلَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي حَيَاتِهِ حَتَّى مَضَى لِسَبِيلِهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَلَمَّا أَنْ وُلِّيَ عُمَرُ عَمِلَ فِيهَا بِمِثْلِ مَا عَمِلَا حَتَّى مَضَى لِسَبِيلِهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏ثُمَّ أَقْطَعَهَا مَرْوَانُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏ثُمَّ صَارَتْ لِعُمَرَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ عُمَرُ:‏‏‏‏ يَعْنِي ابْنَ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ فَرَأَيْتُ أَمْرًا مَنَعَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَاطِمَةَ عَلَيْهَا السَّلَام لَيْسَ لِي بِحَقٍّ وَأَنَا أُشْهِدُكُمْ أَنِّي قَدْ رَدَدْتُهَا عَلَى مَا كَانَتْ يَعْنِي عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد:‏‏‏‏ وَلِيَ عُمَرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ الْخِلَافَةَ وَغَلَّتُهُ أَرْبَعُونَ أَلْفَ دِينَارٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَتُوُفِّيَ وَغَلَّتُهُ أَرْبَعُ مِائَةِ دِينَارٍ وَلَوْ بَقِيَ لَكَانَ أَقَلَّ.

Umar ibn Abdul Aziz gathered the family of Marwan when he was made caliph, and he said: Fadak belonged to the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم, and he made contributions from it, showing repeated kindness to the poor of the Banu Hashim from it, and supplying from it the cost of marriage for those who were unmarried. Fatimah asked him to give it to her, but he refused. That is how matters stood during the lifetime of the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم till he passed on (i.e. died). When Abu Bakr رضی اللہ عنہ was made ruler he administered it as the Prophet صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم had done in his lifetime till he passed on. Then when Umar Ibn al-Khattab رضی اللہ عنہ was made ruler he administered it as they had done till he passed on. Then it was given to Marwan as a fief, and it afterwards came to Umar Ibn Abdul Aziz. Umar Ibn Abdul Aziz رضی اللہ عنہ said: I consider I have no right to something which the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم refused to Fatimah, and I call you to witness that I have restored it to its former condition; meaning in the time of the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم. Abu Dawud said: When Umar bin Abdul-Aziz was made caliph its revenue was forty thousand dinars, and when he died its revenue was four hundred dinars. Had he remained alive, it would have been less than it.
