Reading the statement of Imam al-Nawawi (may Allah have mercy on him) regarding what he transmitted: "

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : Fatimah remained, but she has no inheritance, neither she nor his wives, nor his uncle al-Abbas, nor any of his residuary male heirs, because the Prophets do not leave an inheritance, as the Prophet (peace be upon him) said:
We, the Prophets, do not leave an inheritance; what we leave behind is charity. إنَّا معشرَ الأنبياء لا نورث ، ما تركنا صدقة
As-Sunan al-Kubra lil-Nasa'i 40:5
, and this is from the wisdom of Allah (Mighty and Majestic), because if they were to leave an inheritance, someone would say: "These people came with the message seeking a kingdom to be inherited after them." But Allah (Mighty and Majestic) prevented that. So the Prophets do not leave an inheritance; rather, what they leave behind becomes charity to be distributed to those who are entitled to it. And success is from Allah.
The reciter: Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds, and may the prayers and peace be upon our Prophet Muhammad, and upon his family and all his Companions. The author (may Allah have mercy on him) quoted: "From Usamah ibn Zayd ibn Harithah, the freed slave of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and his beloved, and the son of his beloved (may Allah be pleased with them both), he said:
The daughter of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) sent a message: "My son is on the verge of death, so come witness his death." So he sent a messenger to convey his greetings and say: "To Allah belongs what He takes and what He gives, and everything with Him is for a specified term, so let her be patient and seek reward." So she sent to him, swearing an oath that he would come to her. So he stood up, and with him were Sa'd ibn Ubadah, Mu'adh ibn Jabal, Ubayy ibn Ka'b, Zayd ibn Thabit, and other men (may Allah be pleased with them). The boy was brought to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and he sat him on his lap, and his breath was gasping. His eyes overflowed with tears. Sa'd said: "O Messenger of Allah, what is this?" He said: "This is mercy that Allah the Exalted has placed in the hearts of His servants." أرسلت بنتُ النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم : إن ابني قد احتضر فاشهدنا ، فأرسل يقرئ السلام ويقول : إن لله ما أخذ ، وله ما أعطى ، وكل شيء عنده بأجل مسمى فلتصبر ولتحتسب . فأرسلت إليه تقسم عليه ليأتينها فقام ومعه سعد بن عبادة ، ومعاذ بن جبل ، وأبي بن كعب ، وزيد بن ثابت ورجال رضي الله عنهم ، فرفع إلى رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم الصبيُ فأقعده في حِجره ونفسه تقعقع ، ففاضت عيناه ، فقال سعد يا رسول الله ما هذا ؟ فقال : هذه رحمة جعلها الله تعالى في قلوب عباده
. And in another narration:
in the hearts of whoever He wants of His slaves, and verily Allah is merciful only to those of His slaves who are merciful (to others). في قلوب من شاء من عباده ، وإنما يرحم الله من عباده الرحماء
Sahih al-Bukhari 6655
, agreed upon by al-Bukhari and Muslim, and the meaning of 'gasping' is that it moves and trembles"
