4871 - Abu Abdullah Muhammad ibn Ali al-Jahdari informed us in Baghdad, saying: Abu al-Ahwass Muhammad ibn al-Haytham al-Qadi narrated to us, saying: Muhammad ibn Mus'ab narrated to us, from al-Awza'i, from Abu Ammar Shaddad ibn Abdullah, from Umm al-Fadl bint al-Harith, that she entered upon the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him and his holy progeny), and said: "O Messenger of Allah, I had a terrible dream about you last night." He (peace be upon him and his holy progeny) asked, "What was it?" She replied, "It was frightening." He said, "What was it?" She said, "I saw a piece of your body cut off and placed in my lap." The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him and his holy progeny) said, "You saw good. Fatimah will, if Allah wills, give birth to a son, and he will be in your lap." Fatimah (peace be upon her) gave birth to Husayn, and he was in my lap, as the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him and his holy progeny) had said. I entered one day into the presence of the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him and his holy progeny) and placed him in my lap, then I turned my gaze slightly, and there were tears streaming from the eyes of the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him and his holy progeny). I said, "O Prophet of Allah, may my father and mother be sacrificed for you! What is the matter with you?"
He said: "Gabriel (peace be upon him) came to me and informed me that my Ummah will kill my son." I said, "Is this what you meant?" He replied, "Yes, and he brought me a piece of red soil from his grave." This is a sound hadith, meeting the criteria of the Two Shaykhs, though they did not narrate it.
