They then asked the Imam -asws about al-Jamiah.

They then asked the Imam -asws about al-Jamiah. The Imam -asws replied: \u2018It is a parchment that is seventy yards long with the width of a hide like that of the leg of a huge camel\u2019. It contains all that people may need. There is no case for which there is not a rule in it. In it there is the law even to settle the compensation for a scratch caused to a person. \u2018I (the narrator) then asked the Imam -asws : What is the Mushaf of Fatimah -asws ?

The Imam -asws waited for quite a while. Then he -asws said: \u2018You ask about what you really mean and what you do not mean. (Syeda) Fatimah -asws lived after the Messenger of Allah -saww for seventy-five days. She -asws was severely grieved because of the death of her -asws father. \n Angel Jibril -as would come to provide her solace and condolence due to the Shahadat of her -asws father.

Jibril -as would comfort her -asws soul, inform her -asws about her father -asws , his place, of the future events and about what would happen to her children. At the same time Ali -asws would write all of them down and thus has come to be known as the Mushaf of (Syeda) Fatimah -asws \u2019.
