Fatima's claim to the Prophet's inheritance and Fadak

After the Prophet's death Fatima and al-Abbas asked Abu Bakr for their share of the Prophet's estate, the land of Fadak and his share of Khaybar. Abu Bakr answered with the report that prophets leave no inheritance, and said he would keep the Prophet's practice. Sallabi records the Sunni reply to the Imami claims and reports that Fatima was pleased with Abu Bakr before her death.
