649 - Muhammad ibn Ubayd narrated to us, who said: Sharhabil ibn Mudarik narrated to us, from Abdullah ibn Naji, from his father, that he traveled with Ali (ra), who was the caretaker of his purification. When they reached Nineveh while he was en route to Siffin, Ali (ra) called out: "Be patient, Abu Abdullah, be patient, Abu Abdullah, by the bank of the Euphrates." I said, "What did he say?" He replied: "I entered upon the Prophet (peace be upon him and his holy progeny) one day, and his eyes were overflowing with tears. I said, 'O Prophet of Allah, has someone made you angry? Why are your eyes overflowing with tears?'" He said: "No, but Gabriel rose from me before and informed me that Hussein would be killed by the bank of the Euphrates." He then said: "Would you like me to let you smell his soil?" I replied, "Yes." So he stretched out his hand, took a handful of soil, and gave it to me, and I could not help but have my eyes overflow as well.

He said to Umm Salama: "Guard the door, so that no one enters upon us." She replied. Then al-Husayn came to enter, but she prevented him. He jumped and entered, and began to sit on the back of the Prophet (peace be upon him and his holy progeny), on his shoulder, and on his lap. The angel said to the Prophet (peace be upon him and his holy progeny), "Do you love him?" He replied, "Yes." The angel said, "Indeed, your ummah will kill him, and if you wish, I can show you the place where he will be killed." He struck his hand, and brought forth a handful of red soil." Umm Salama took it and kept it in her scarf. Thabit said: "We were informed that it was Karbala."

Then he said to Um Salama: "Keep the door closed; no one should enter." Then al-Husayn ibn Ali (peace be upon them) came and jumped until he entered, and he began to climb onto the shoulder of the Prophet (peace be upon him and his holy progeny). The angel said to him, "Do you love him?" The Prophet (peace be upon him and his holy progeny) replied, "Yes." The angel said, "Then your الأمة (community) will kill him, and if you wish, I can show you the place where he will be killed." Then he struck his hand and showed him red dust. Um Salama took that dust and clasped it in the corner of her garment." Then we began to hear that he would be killed in Karbala.

26010 - Abu al-Nadr Hashim ibn al-Qasim narrated to us, who said: Abd al-Hamid, meaning ibn Bahram, narrated to us, and he said: Shahr ibn Hawshab narrated to me, saying: I heard Umm Salamah, the wife of the Prophet (peace be upon him and his holy progeny), when the news of the martyrdom of Hussain ibn Ali came, curse the people of Iraq and say: "They killed him; may Allah kill them! They deceived him and humiliated him; may Allah kill them!" For I saw Fatimah (peace be upon her and her holy progeny) come to the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him and his holy progeny) in the morning with a pot she had made containing a type of porridge, which she carried in a dish. She set it down between his hands, and he said to her: "Where is your cousin?" She replied: "He is in the house." He said: "Go and call him, and bring me his sons." So she came back, leading her two sons, each by the hand, with Ali walking behind them until they entered upon the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him and his holy progeny). He seated them in his lap, and Ali sat on his right, while Fatimah sat on his left. Umm Salamah said: Then he took from beneath me a Khayyabri cloak that was our blanket over the bed in the city of Medina and wrapped it around them all. He held the ends of the cloak in his left hand and raised his right hand to his Lord, the Almighty, and He said: "O Allah, my family! Remove from them the impurity and purify them entirely." O Allah, my household! Remove from them the impurity and purify them entirely. O Allah, my household! Remove from them the impurity and purify them entirely." I said: "O Messenger of Allah, are you not one of your family?" He replied: "Yes, so enter the cloak." She said: So I entered the cloak after he finished his prayer for his cousin, Ali, and his sons, and his daughter, Fatimah (peace be upon her and her holy progeny).

For I saw the Messenger of God (peace be upon him and his holy progeny) when Fatimah came to him in the morning with a pot in which she had made porridge, carrying it in a dish of hers until she placed it before him. He said to her: "Where is your cousin?" She replied: "He is in the house." He said: "Go and call him, and bring me his two sons."

He repeated: "O God, the members of my family, remove the impurity from them and make them pure and spotless. O God, these are the People of my House; remove the impurity from them and make them pure and spotless." I said, "O Messenger of God, are you not one of your family?" He replied: "Yes, but you may enter the cloak." So I entered the cloak after he had finished his prayer for his cousin, Ali, and his two sons, and his daughter, Fatimah.
