Narrated Abdullah Bin AlZubair: When AlZubair got up during the battle of AlJamal; he called me and I stood up beside him; and he said to me; O my son! Today one will be killed either as an oppressor or as an oppressed one. I see that I will be killed as an oppressed one. My biggest worry is my debts. Do you think; if we pay the debts; there will be something left for us from our money? AlZubair added; O my son! Sell our property and pay my debts. AlZubair then willed one-third of his property and willed one-third of that portion to his sons; namely; Abdullah sons. He said; One-third of the one third. If any property is left after the payment of the debts; one-third of the one-third of what is left is to be given to your sons. Hisham; a sub-narrator added; Some of the sons of Abdullah were equal in age to the sons of AlZubair e.g. Khubaib and Abbas. Abdullah had nine sons and nine daughters at that time. The narrator Abdullah added: My father AlZubair went on drawing my attention to his debts saying; If you should fail to pay part of the debts; appeal to my Master to help you. By Allah! I could not understand what he meant till I asked; O father! Who is your Master? He replied; Allah is my Master. By Allah; whenever I had any difficulty regarding his debts; I would say; Master of AlZubair! Pay his debts on his behalf. and Allah would help me to pay it. AlZubair was martyred leaving no Dinar or Dirham but two pieces of land; one of which was called AlGhaba; and eleven houses in Medina; two in Basra; one in Kufa and one in Egypt. In fact; the source of the debt which he owed was; that if somebody brought some money to deposit with him. AlZubair would say; No; i wont keep it as a trust ; but I take it as a debt; for I am afraid it might be lost. AlZubair was never appointed governor or collector of the tax of Kharaj or any other similar thing; but he collected his wealth from the war booty he gained during the holy battles he took part in; in the company of the Prophet; Abu Bakr; Umar; and Uthman. Abdullah Bin AlZubair added: When I counted his debt; it turned to be two million and two hundred thousand. The sub-narrator added: Hakim Bin Hizam met Abdullah Bin AlZubair and asked; O my nephew! How much is the debt of my brother? Abdullah kept it as a secret and said; One hundred thousand; Hakim said; By Allah! I dont think your property will cover it. On that Abdullah said to him; What if it is two million and two hundred thousand? Hakim said; I dont think you can pay it; so if you are unable to pay all of it; I will help you. AlZubair had already bought AlGhaba for one hundred and seventy thousand. Abdullah sold it for one million and six hundred thousand. Then he called the people saying; Any person who has any money claim on AlZubair should come to us in AlGhaba. There came to him Abdullah Bin Jafar whom AlZubair owed four hundred thousand. He said to Abdullah Bin AlZubair; If you wish I will forgive you the debt. Abdullah bin AlZubair said; No. Then Ibn Jafar said; If you wish you can defer the payment if you should defer the payment of any debt. Ibn AlZubair said; No. Abdullah Bin Jafar said; Give me a piece of the land. Abdullah Bin AlZubair said to him ; Yours is the land extending from this place to this place. So; Abdullah Bin AlZubair sold some of the property including the houses and paid his debt perfectly; retaining four and a half shares from the land i.e. AlGhaba. He then went to Muawlya while Amr Bin Uthman; AlMundhir Bin AlZubair and Ibn Zama were sitting with him. Muawiya asked; At what price have you appraised AlGhaba? He said; One hundred thousand for each share; Muawiya asked; How many shares have been left? Abdullah replied; Four and a half shares. AlMundhir Bin AlZubair said; I would like to buy one share for one hundred thousand. Amr Bin Uthman said; I would like to buy one share for one hundred thousand. Ibn Zama said; I would like to buy one share for one hundred thousand. Muawiya said; How much is left now? Abdullah replied; One share and a half. Muawiya said; I would like to buy it for one hundred and fifty thousand. Abdullah also sold his part to Muawiya six hundred thousand. When Ibn AlZubair had paid all the debts. AlZubair sons said to him; Distribute our inheritance among us. He said; No; by Allah; I will not distribute it among you till I announce in four successive Hajj seasons; Would those who have money claims on AlZubair come so that we may pay them their debt. So; he started to announce that in public in every Hajj season; and when four years had elapsed; he distributed the inheritance among the inheritors. AlZubair had four wives; and after the one-third of his property was excluded according to the will ; each of his wives received one million and two hundred thousand. So the total amount of his property was fifty million and two hundred thousand.
