وَ أَنْتَ عَصَيْتَنِي بِأَكْلِ الشَّجَرَةِ وَ بِالتَّوَاضُعِ...
وَ أَنْتَ عَصَيْتَنِي بِأَكْلِ الشَّجَرَةِ وَ بِالتَّوَاضُعِ لِمُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ تُفْلِحُ كُلَّ الْفَلَاحِ وَ تَزُولُ عَنْكَ وَصْمَةُ الزَّلَّةِ فَادْعُنِي بِمُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِهِ الطَّيِّبِينَ ع لِذَلِكَ And (although) you -as (also) disobeyed Me -azwj by eating (from) the tree, but the humbleness to Muhammad -saww and the Progeny -asws of Muhammad -saww (made) you -as victorious with every success, and the stigma of humiliation was removed from you -as .
Therefore, supplicate to Me -azwj by Muhammad -saww and his -saww goodly Progeny -asws , for that!” فَدَعَا بِهِمْ فَأَفْلَحَ كُلَّ الْفَلَاحِ لِمَا تَمَسَّكَ بِعُرْوَتِنَا أَهْلَ الْبَيْتِ So, he -as supplicated by them -asws , and succeeded with every success – due to having attached with our -asws handhold, the People -asws of the Household’.
ثُمَّ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص أَمَرَ بِالرَّحِيلِ فِي أَوَّلِ نِصْفِ اللَّيْلِ الْأَخِيرِ وَ أَمَرَ مُنَادِيَهُ فَنَادَى أَلَا لَا يَسْبِقَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص أَحَدٌ إِلَى الْعَقَبَةِ وَ لَا يَطَؤُهَا حَتَّى يُجَاوِزَهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص Then Rasool-Allah -saww ordered with the departure – during the first half of the last night, and ordered his -saww caller to call out, ‘Indeed!
No one should precede Rasool-Allah -saww to Al-Aqaba (ravine), nor tread upon it until Rasool-Allah -saww has crossed it’.
ثُمَّ أَمَرَ حُذَيْفَةَ أَنْ يَقْعُدَ فِي أَصْلِ الْعَقَبَةِ فَيَنْظُرَ مَنْ يَمُرُّ بِهِ وَ يُخْبِرَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص وَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص أَمَرَهُ أَنْ يَتَشَبَّهَ بِحَجَرٍ Then he -saww instructed Huzeyfa that he be seated at the base of Al-Aqaba and look at the ones who pass by it, and he should inform Rasool-Allah -saww ; and Rasool-Allah -saww had instructed him that he should conceal himself by (behind) the rocks.
فَقَالَ حُذَيْفَةُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص إِنِّي أَتَبَيَّنُ الشَّرَّ فِي وُجُوهِ رُؤَسَاءِ عَسْكَرِكَ وَ إِنِّي أَخَافُ إِنْ قَعَدْتُ فِي أَصْلِ الْجَبَلِ وَ جَاءَ مِنْهُمْ مَنْ أَخَافُ أَنْ يَتَقَدَّمَكَ إِلَى هُنَاكَ لِلتَّدْبِيرِ عَلَيْكَ يُحِسُّ بِي فَيَكْشِفُ عَنِّي فَيَعْرِفُنِي وَ مَوْضِعِي مِنْ نَصِيحَتِكَ فَيَتَّهِمُنِي وَ يَخَافُنِي فَيَقْتُلُنِي Huzeyfa said, ‘O Rasool-Allah -saww !
