"عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ الخَطَّابِ قَالَ: لَمَّا كَان اليومُ الَّذِى تُوُفَّى فِيهِ رسولُ الله ﷺ، بُويعَ لأَبِى بَكْرٍ في ذَلِكَ اليَوْمِ، فلمَّا كانَ مِنَ الغَدِ، جَاءتْ فَاطِمَةُ إِلَى أَبى بَكْرٍ معها علىٌّ فقالت: ميراثى من رَسول الله أبي، فقال أبو بكر: أَمِنَ الرِّثَّة أَوْ مِنَ العُقْد؟ قالتْ: فَدَك، وخَيْبَر وصَدقَاتهُ بِالْمَدِينَةِ أَرثُهَا كَمَا تَرِثُكَ بَنَاتُكَ إِذَا مِتَّ، فقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ: أَبوكِ والله خَيرٌ مِنَّى، وَأَنْتِ وَالله خَيرٌ مِنْ بنَاتِى، وقدْ قالَ رسولُ الله ﷺ: "لَا نورَثُ مَا تَرَكْنَاه صَدَقَةٌ" - يَعْنِى هذه الأَمْوَالَ القائِمَة - فَتَعْلَمِينَ أَنَّ أَباكِ أَعطَاكِهَا؟ فوالله لَئِنْ قُلْتِ نَعمْ لأَقْبَلَنَّ قَوْلَكِ ولأُصَدِّقَنَّكِ، قالَتْ: جاءتْنِى أُمُّ أَيْمَنَ فَأخبَرَتْنِى أَنَّهُ أَعْطانِى فَدَك، قالَ عُمَرُ: أَفَسَمِعْتِهِ يقولُ: هِىَ لَكِ؟ فَإِذَا قُلتِ: قدْ سَمِعْتُهُ؛ فَهِى لَكِ، فَأَنَا أُصَدِّقُكِ وأَقْبلُ قَوْلَكِ، قالَتْ: قَدْ أَخبَرْتُكَ مَا عِنْدِى".

"From ʿUmar b. al-Khaṭṭāb, who said: When the day came on which the Messenger of God ﷺ died, allegiance was pledged to Abū Bakr on that same day. The next morning Fāṭimah came to Abū Bakr, and ʿAlī was with her. She said: 'My inheritance from the Messenger of God, my father.' Abū Bakr said: 'Is it from the household goods or from the landed property?' She said: 'Fadak, Khaybar, and his charitable endowments in Medina. I inherit them just as your daughters would inherit from you when you die.' Abū Bakr said: 'By God, your father was better than me, and by God, you are better than my daughters. And the Messenger of God ﷺ said: "We are not inherited from; what we leave behind is charity" – meaning these standing properties. Do you know that your father gave it to you? By God, if you say yes, I will accept your word and believe you.' She said: 'Umm Ayman came to me and told me that he gave me Fadak.' ʿUmar said: 'Did you hear him say: It is yours? If you say: I heard him, then it is yours, and I will believe you and accept your word.' She said: 'I have told you what I have.'"
