حَدَّثَنَا الْقَعْنَبِيُّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ مَالِكٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عُرْوَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ:‏‏‏‏ إِنَّ أَزْوَاجَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حِينَ تُوُفِّيَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَرَدْنَ أَنْ يَبْعَثْنَ عُثْمَانَ بْنَ عَفَّانَ إِلَى أَبِي بَكْرٍ الصِّدِّيقِ فَيَسْأَلْنَهُ ثُمُنَهُنَّ مِنَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَتْ لَهُنَّ عَائِشَةُ:‏‏‏‏ أَلَيْسَ قَدْ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:‏‏‏‏ لَا نُورَثُ مَا تَرَكْنَا فَهُوَ صَدَقَةٌ .

When the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم died, the wives of the Prophet صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم intended to send Uthman bin Affan رضی اللہ عنہ to Abu Bakr رضی اللہ عنہ to ask him their cost of living from (the inheritance of) the Prophet صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم. Thereupon Aishah رضی اللہ عنہا said: Did not the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم say: We are not inherited. Whatever we leave is sadaqah.
