--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In the name of Allah, the All-Merciful, the
All-Compassionate

Fatimatuz-Zahra, the daughter of the Prophet, peace be
on them, is to have thus related ( an event ) :
My father, the Prophet of
Allah, came to my house one day and said to me : " Peace be on you, Fatimah
"
I replied : " And upon you be peace "
Then he said : " I feel weakness
in my body "
I said : " Allah protects you from weakness, father "
He said
: " Fatimah, please bring Yemeni cloak and cover me with it "
So, I brought
the Yemeni cloak and covered him with it.
Then, I looked at him and saw that
his face was shining like a full moon with its glory and splendor After a while,
my son Hasan came in and said : " Peace be on you, mother "
I replied : " And
upon you peace, O light of my eyes, and the delight of my heart "
He then
said : " Mother! I smell a fragrance so sweet and so pure as that of my
grandfather, the Prophet of Allah "
I replied : " Yes. Your grandfather is
lying underneath the cloak "
Hasan went near the cloak and said : " Peace be
on you, my grandfather, the Prophet of Allah; May I enter the cloak with you?
"
He replied : " And upon you peace, my son and the master of my fountain ( Kauthar ), you are
given the permission to enter "
So, Hasan entered the cloak with him. After a
while, my Husain came in and said : " Peace be on you, mother "
I replied : "
And upon you peace, O light of my eyes, and the delight of my heart "
He then
said : " Mother! I smell a sweet fragrance like that of my grandfather, the
Prophet of Allah "
I replied : " Yes. Your grandfather and your brother are
lying underneath the cloak "
Husain stepped towards the cloak and said : "
Peace be on you, my grandfather, the Chosen of Allah; May I enter the cloak with
you? "
He replied : " And upon you peace, my son and interceder of my
followers, you are given the permission to enter "
So, Husain entered the
cloak with them. After a while, Abul Hasan, Ali bin Abi Talib came in and said :
" Peace be on you, O daughter of the Prophet of Allah "
I replied : " And
upon you peace, O father of Hasan, and the Commander of the faithful "
He
then said : " Fatimah! I smell a sweet fragrance like that of my brother, ( my
cousin ), the Prophet of Allah "
I replied : " Yes. He is underneath the
cloak with your two sons "
So, Ali went near the cloak and said : " Peace be
on you, Prophet of Allah; May I enter the cloak with you? "
He replied : "
And upon you peace, my brother, my legatee, my successor, and my standard
bearer, you are given the permission to enter "
So, Ali entered the cloak
with them. Then I stepped forward and said : " Peace be on you, my father, O
Prophet of Allah; May I enter the cloak with you? "
He replied : " And upon
you peace, my daughter, O part of my self; you are given the permission to enter
"
So, I entered the cloak with them.
Getting together underneath the
cloak, my father, the Prophet of Allah, held the two ends of the cloak and
raised his right hand towards the heavens and prayed :
"O Allah, these are
the people of my Household ( Ahlul-Bayt ). They are my confidants and my
supporters.
Their flesh is my flesh and their blood is my blood.
Whoever
hurts them, hurts me too.
Whoever displeases them, displeased me too.
I am
at war with those at war with them.
I am at peace with those at peace with
them. I am the enemies of their enemies and
I am the friend of their
friends.
They are from me and I am from them.
O Allah! Bestow Your
Blessings, Benevolence, Forgiveness and Your pleasure upon me and upon them. And
remove impurity from them and keep them thoroughly pure "
Then the Lord,
Almighty Allah said :
" O My angles! O Residents of My Heavens, verily, I
have not created the erected Sky, the stretched earth, the illuminated moon, the
bright sun, the rotating planets, the flowing seas and the sailing ships, but
for the love of these Five lying underneath the cloak "
Gabriel, the trusted
angle, asked : " Who are under the cloak ? " The Almighty answered : " They are
the Household of the Prophet and the assets of Prophethood. They are : Fatimah, his daughter, her
husband and her two sons "
Gabriel said : " O Lord, May I fly to earth to be
the sixth of them? "
Allah replied : " Yes. You are given the permission
"
Gabriel, the trusted, landed near them and said : " Peace be on you, O
Prophet of Allah. The All-Highest conveys His peace on you and His greetings and
says:
" By My Honor and Glory, O My angles! O Residents of My Heavens,
verily, I have not created the erected Sky, the stretched earth, the illuminated
moon, the bright sun, the rotating planets, the flowing seas and the sailing
ships, but for your sake and love "God has given me permission to enter the
cloak with you. May I join you, O Prophet of Allah? "
The Prophet replied : "
And peace be on you, O trusted bearer of Allah's Revelations! you are granted
the permission "
So, Gabriel entered the cloak with us and said to my father
: " Allah sends His Revelations to you
" Verily Allah's desire is to remove
blemish from you, O People of Household ( Ahlul-Bayt ) and purify you with a
perfect purification "
Then Ali said to my father : " O Prophet of Allah,
tell me what significance has Allah given for getting together underneath this
cloak ? "
The Prophet replied : " By Him who rightfully appointed me a
Prophet and chose me a Messenger for the salvation of the mankind. whenever and
wherever and assembly of our followers and friends mention this event,
Allah
will bestow on them His Blessings and Mercy;
angles will encircle them asking
Allah the remission of their sins until the assembly disperse
So Ali said : "
Verily, by the Lord of Kabaa! we and our followers are the winners "
Then my
father replied : " By Him who rightfully appointed me a Prophet and chose me a
Messenger for the salvation of the mankind,
whenever and wherever an assembly
of our followers and friends mentions this event,
there shall remain none
grieved but Allah will remove his grief, there shall remain none distressed but
Allah will dispel his distress,
there shall remain none wish-seeker but Allah
will grant his wish.
All happily said : " Verily, by the Lord of Kabaa! we
and our followers are the winners and the blessed, in this world and the next
