Sahih al-Bukhari 4374 (Book 65, Hadith 102)
regarding:– “And those to whom your right hands have pledged.”
When the Emigrants came to Medina, an Emigrant used to be the heir of an Ansari with the exclusion
of the latter’s relatives, and that was because of the bond of brotherhood which the Prophet (ﷺ) had
established between them (i.e. the Emigrants and the Ansar). So when the Verses:– “To everyone We
have appointed heirs.” was revealed, (the inheritance through bond of brotherhood) was cancelled. Ibn
`Abbas then said: “And those to whom your right hands have pledged.” is concerned with the
covenant of helping and advising each other. So allies are no longer to be the heir of each other, but
they can bequeath each other some of their property by means of a will.
