حَدَّثَنَا خَلَّادُ بْنُ يَحْيَى حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكٌ هُوَ ابْنُ مِغْوَلٍ حَدَّثَنَا طَلْحَةُ بْنُ مُصَرِّفٍ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ أَبِي أَوْفَى رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَاهَلْ كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَوْصَى فَقَالَ لَا فَقُلْتُ كَيْفَ كُتِبَ عَلَى النَّاسِ الْوَصِيَّةُ أَوْ أُمِرُوا بِالْوَصِيَّةِ قَالَ أَوْصَى بِكِتَابِ اللَّهِ

It has been narrated to us by Khollad bin Yahya, who narrated from Malik, that is, the son of Mighwal, who narrated from Thalhah bin Musharrif, who said: I asked 'Abdullah bin Abi Aufa, may Allah be pleased with them both: 'Did the Prophet peace and blessings be upon him, make a will?' He replied: 'No.' I asked again: 'How is it that making a will is obligatory for people or that they are commanded to make a will?' He replied: 'He made a will with the Book of Allah.'
