Sahih al-Bukhari 2239 (Book 41, Hadith 9)
half the products of fruits or vegetation would be their share. The Prophet (ﷺ) used to give his wives one
hundred Wasqs each, eighty Wasqs of dates and twenty Wasqs of barley. (When `Umar became the
Caliph) he gave the wives of the Prophet (ﷺ) the option of either having the land and water as their shares,
or carrying on the previous practice. Some of them chose the land and some chose the Wasqs, and
`Aisha chose the land.
