Then he turned his face toward the grave of the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him and his holy progeny) and said: "Peace be upon you, O Messenger of Allah, from me, and peace be upon you from your daughter, your visitor, and the one who lies in the dust in your sacred place, chosen by Allah for her to join you swiftly." He continued: "Tell me, O Messenger of Allah, about your chosen one, my patience, and my endurance for the Mistress of the Women of the Worlds...." until he said: "....And they are a source of agitation, and it will not be long before a separation occurs between us, and I complain to Allah. Your daughter will inform you of the collusion of your Ummah against her, so be sure to ask her and inquire about her situation. How many grievances are surging in her chest that she has no means to express!" And she will say, 'Woe to you!' Allah will judge, and He is the best of judges...."

And when I saw her, I remembered what would be done to her after me, as if I were seeing her with humiliation entering her house, its sanctity violated, her right usurped, her inheritance denied, her side broken, and her fetus miscarried, while she calls out: O Muhammad! but receives no response, and she cries for help but is not aided. She will remain after me in sadness, distress, and tears, remembering the cutoff of revelation from her house at one moment and recalling my separation at another. She will feel lonely when night falls, forsaken of my voice that she used to listen to when she prayed at night with the Quran, and then she will see herself humiliated, after having been honored in the days of her father ....

The believers followed him, while the hypocrites deserted him and set up a man for kingship and the affairs of the world, someone they had chosen for themselves rather than the one chosen by Allah, the Almighty, and His Messenger, Muhammad (peace be upon him and his holy progeny). It is narrated that al-Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) went to the Commander of the Faithful (peace be upon him) while the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him and his holy progeny) had passed away and said to him: "Extend your hand so I can pledge allegiance to you." He replied: "Who seeks this matter and who is fit for it if not us?" And some people from among the Muslims came to him, including al-Zubayr and Abu Sufyan Sakhr ibn Harb, but he refused. The emigrants (Muhajirun) and the helpers (Ansar) disagreed.... until he continued.... "So they directed themselves to his home, burst in on him, and set his door on fire. They forcibly dragged him out and pressed the Mistress of the Women at the door until she miscarried Muhsin. They took him by force to pledge allegiance, but he resisted and said: 'I will not do it.' They replied: 'We will kill you.' He said: 'If you kill me, I am a servant of Allah and the brother of His Messenger.'" They tried to extend his hand, but he clenched it, and it was difficult for them to open it. So, they wiped their hands over it while it was still closed.... etc.

So we both set out for Ahmad ibn Isḥāq al-Qummī, the companion of Abā al-Ḥasan al-ʿAskarī (peace be upon him), in the city of Qum. We knocked on his door, and an Iraqi girl came out to us. We asked her about him, and she said: "He is busy with his feast, for it is a day of celebration." I said: "Glory be to Allah! The only festivals for the Shi'a are four: Eid al-Fitr, Eid al-Adhā, Ghadir, and Friday." She replied: "Ahmad ibn Isḥāq narrates from his master, Abā al-Ḥasan ʿAlī ibn Muḥammad al-ʿAskarī (peace be upon him), that this day is a day of celebration, and it is the best of festivals in the eyes of the Ahlul Bayt (peace be upon them) and their followers..."

He was not satisfied with her, altered all the Sunnahs, schemed for the murder of the Commander of the Faithful (peace be upon him), displayed injustice, and prohibited what Allah had made lawful, while legalizing what Allah had prohibited, leaving people to emulate the coins made from the hides of camels and slapped the face of the pure one (peace be upon her)....

And the cause of her death was that Qunfudh, a freed slave of Umar, jabbed her in the side with the heel of his sword at his command, and she miscarried Muhsin. She fell severely ill from this and did not allow anyone who had hurt her to enter upon her. Two men from the companions of the Prophet (peace be upon him and his holy progeny) asked the Commander of the Faithful to intercede for them with her, so the Commander of the Faithful (peace be upon him) asked her, and she consented. When they both entered upon her, they said: How are you, O daughter of the Messenger of Allah? She replied: I am well, praise be to Allah. Then she said to them: Did you not hear the Prophet (peace be upon him and his holy progeny) say, "Fatimah is a part of me. Whoever harms her has harmed me, and whoever harms me has harmed Allah"? They said: Yes. She said: By Allah, you have surely harmed me. So they both left her, and she was displeased with them.

He said: "I accept, O Lord, and I am pleased and submit, and from You is the success and patience." As for the second, it is denial and severe fear, and with that, Your soul will be at stake in combating the people of disbelief with your wealth and yourself, and being patient with what befalls you from them in terms of harm, and from the people of hypocrisy and pain in battle and injuries." He said: "I accept, O Lord, and I am pleased and submit, and from You is the success and patience." As for the third, it is what your family will face after you in terms of killing. Your brother Ali will face from your community insults, harsh treatment, rebukes, deprivation, denial, and injustice, and the end of it will be death."

She will be struck while pregnant, and your home and the dwellings of your women will be entered without permission.
