- .... Who are the People of the House whom Allah, the Exalted, praised in His Noble Book
with His statement, Mighty is He who speaks: {Indeed, Allah only intends to remove the impurity from you, O People of the House, and to make you pure and spotless} (Surah Al-Ahzab 33:33). Al-Alusi said in his Tafsir: Al-Tirmidhi and al-Hakim narrated this, and they both authenticated it, as did Ibn Jarir, Ibn al-Mundhir, Ibn Marduyah, and al-Bayhaqi in his Sunan
from Um Salama (may Allah be pleased with her) through various chains, who said: This was revealed in my house: {Indeed, Allah only intends to remove the impurity from you, O People of the House, and to make you pure and spotless} (Surah Al-Ahzab 33:33).
And in the house were Fatimah, Ali, Hasan, and Husayn, and the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him and his holy progeny) covered them with a cloak he had on, and then said: These are my People of the House; thus, He has removed the impurity from them and made them pure and spotless. Then he said: And there is a narration narrated by al-Tabarani from Um Salama, in which she said: So I raised the cloak to enter with them, but he (peace be upon him and his holy progeny) pulled it away from my hands and said: You are on what is good.
