حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَبَّاسٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْحَارِثِ، قَالَ مَا تَرَكَ النَّبِيُّ إِلاَّ سِلاَحَهُ وَبَغْلَةً بَيْضَاءَ وَأَرْضًا جَعَلَهَا صَدَقَةً‏.‏

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith speaks to the legacy of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ and how he chose to leave behind him. He did not leave any material possessions or wealth for himself or his family; instead he left only three things - his arms, a white mule and a piece of land at Khaibar. These were all intended to be given away in charity as an example of generosity and kindness towards others. This hadith teaches us that we should strive to emulate the Prophet's example by being generous with our time, money and resources so that we can benefit those around us who are less fortunate than ourselves. It also reminds us that true wealth is found in giving rather than receiving.
