Reconciliation between the creditors and between the inheritors

My father died and was in debt. I suggested that his creditors take the fruits (i.e. dates) of my garden in lieu of the debt of my father, but they refused the offer, as they thought that it would not cover the full debt. So, I went to the Prophet (ﷺ) and told him about it. He said (to me), "When you pluck the dates and collect them in the Mirbad (i.e. a place where dates are dried), call me (Allah's Messenger (ﷺ))." Finally he came accompanied by Abu Bakr and `Umar رضی اللہ عنہ and sat on the dates and invoked Allah to bless them. Then he said, "Call your creditors and give them their full rights." So, I paid all my father's creditors in full and yet thirteen extra Wasqs of dates remained, seven of which were 'Ajwa and six were Laun or six of which were Ajwa and seven were Laun. I met Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) at sunset and informed him about it. On that he smiled and said, "Go to Abu Bakr رضی اللہ عنہ and `Umar رضی اللہ عنہ and tell them about it." They said, "We perceived that was going to happen, as Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) did what he did." Hisham said: Wahab has reported the Asr prayer from Hadrat Jabir رضی اللہ عنہ . Moreover, he did not mention Hadrat Abu Bakr and the prophet's laugh. Hadrat Jabir bin Abdullah said: My father left a adept of thirty Wasaqs. Ibn-e-Ishaq said: Wahab has reported the Zuhr prayer from Hadrat Jabir.
