770 - And what Suleiman al-Kaysani told us, saying: Abd al-Rahman ibn Ziyad narrated to us, (and) what al-Rabi' al-Muradi told us, saying: Asad ibn Musa narrated to us, both said: Abd al-Hamid ibn Bahram
narrated to us, and Shaher said: I heard Umm Salamah when the news of the martyrdom of Husayn ibn Ali came to her, and she said: "They killed him. May Allah kill them!" and "They stripped him of his clothes and humiliated him. May Allah curse them!" I saw the Messenger of Allah, Peace Be Upon Him, when Fatimah came to him in the morning with a large shallow dish she had made into a porridge, carrying it in a plate until she placed it between his hands. He then said to her: "Where is your cousin?" She replied: "He is in the house." He said: "Go and call him, and bring me your two sons." She came back leading her two sons, each one of them, and Ali was walking behind them until they entered upon the Messenger of Allah, Peace Be Upon Him. He seated them in his lap, and Ali sat on his right while Fatimah sat on his left. Umm Salamah said: Then he retrieved from beneath me a colorful cloak that had been our mat on the bed in Medina and wrapped it around the Messenger of Allah, Peace Be Upon Him, and them all. He took hold of the ends of the cloak with his left hand and raised his right hand to his Lord, the Mighty and Majestic, saying: "O Allah, remove the impurity from them and purify them with a thorough purification," three times. She said: I said, "O Messenger of Allah, are you not one of your family?" He replied: "Indeed, I am." I said: "Then include me in the cloak." She said: I entered after he had completed his supplication for his cousin, Ali, and his two sons, and his daughter, Fatimah, Peace Be Upon Them.
