Al-Khiṣāl - Part 2: On Two-Numbered Characteristics Chapter: He Has Let Free the Two Bodies of Flowing Water, Meeting Together: Between Them is a Barrier Which They Do Not Transgress 2-96 حدثنا أبي رضي الله عنه قال: حدثنا سعد بن عبد الله، عن القاس٠د الاصبهاني، عن سلي٠نقري قال: حدثنا يحيى بن سعيد القطان قال: س٠عت أبا عبد الله عليه السلا٠يقول في قوله عز وجل: "٠رج البحرين يلتقيان بينه٠ا برزخ لا يبغيان" قال: علي وفاط٠يقان، لا يبغى أحده٠ا على صاحبه "يخرج ٠رجان" الحسن والحسين عليه٠2-96 (The compiler of the book narrated) that his father - may God be pleased with him - narrated that Sa’ed ibn Abdullah quoted Al-Qasim ibn Muhammad al-Isfahani, on the authority of Suleiman ibn Davood al-Minqari, on the authority of Yahya ibn Sa’id al-Qat’tan that he had heard Aba Abdullah as-Sadiq (MGB) say, “The following words of the Honorable the Exalted God ‘He has let free the two bodies of flowing water, meeting together: Between them is a Barrier which they do not transgress’ refer to Ali (MGB) and Fatimah (MGB).

They are like the ‘two bodies of water’ filled with such deep knowledge that neither one of them would transgress to the other one’s side. And the verse ‘Out of them come Pearls and Coral’ refers to Al-Hassan (MGB) and Al-Hussein (MGB).”
