Aishah narrated:
"When the Messenger of Allah died, they disagreed over where to bury him. So Abu Bakr said: 'I heard the Messenger of Allah saying something which I have not forgotten, he said: "Allah does not take (the life of ) a Prophet (ﷺ) except at the location in which He wants him to be buried.'" So they buried him at the spot of his bed."
