Sunan ad-Darimi 3224

Translation

✧ I asked Abdullah b. Abi Awfa: "Did the Messenger of Allah ﷺ make a will?" He said: "No." I said: "Then how was the will prescribed for people, or were they commanded to make a will?" He said: "He bequeathed the Book of Allah, Mighty and Sublime." And Huzayl b. Shurahbil said: "Abu Bakr was acting as executor over the successor of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ? Abu Bakr wished that he had found a covenant from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and had pierced his nose with a nose ring for it."
