Description
Ibn Sa'ad in his Tabaqat al-Kubra. Vol. 2, pg. 241:

أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُمَرَ. حَدَّثَنِي هِشَامُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ عَنْ عَبَّاسِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَعْبَدٍ عَنْ ‌جَعْفَرٍ قَالَ: جَاءَتْ فَاطِمَةُ إِلَى أَبِي بَكْرٍ تَطْلُبُ مِيرَاثَهَا. وَجَاءَ الْعَبَّاسُ بْنُ عبد المطلب بطلب مِيرَاثَهُ. وَجَاءَ مَعَهُمَا عَلِيُّ. فَقَالَ ‌أَبُو ‌بَكْرٍ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ: لا نُورَثُ. مَا تَرَكْنَا صَدَقَةٌ. وَمَا كَانَ النَّبِيُّ يَعُولُ فَعَلَيَّ. فَقَالَ علي: وَرِثَ ‌سُلَيْمانُ ‌داوُدَ وقال زكرياء يَرِثُنِي وَيَرِثُ مِنْ آلِ يَعْقُوبَ. قَالَ ‌أَبُو ‌بَكْرٍ: هُوَ هَكَذَا وَأَنْتَ وَاللَّهِ تَعْلَمُ مِثْلَمَا أَعْلَمُ. فَقَالَ عَلِيٌّ: هَذَا كِتَابُ اللَّهِ يَنْطِقُ! فَسَكَتُوا وَانْصَرَفُوا]

Muhammad bin Umar informed us. Hisham bin Sa'd narrated to me from Abbas bin Abdullah bin Ma'bad, from Ja'far al-Sadiq (as), who said.:

“Fatima came to Abu Bakr and demanded her share in the inheritance. Al-Abbas b. ‘Abd al-Muttalib came to him and demanded his share in the inheritance, and ‘Ali came with them. Thereupon Abu Bakr said: ‘The Apostle of Allah said: ‘We leave no inheritance, what we leave behind us is sadaqah.’ I shall make provisions for those for whom the Prophet had made.’ On this ‘Ali said: ﴾Sulayman inherited Dawud﴿ (27:16) and Zakariya said: ﴾So that he may be my heir and the heir of the children of Ya’qub﴿ (19:6) Abu Bakr said: ‘This is as this is. By Allah! You know it as I know.’ Thereupon Ali said: ‘This is the book of Allah that speaks.’ Then they became quiet and retired.”
