Chapter: The Martyrdom of Ĥusain ibn ‘Ali (a.s.) Revealed Through Jabra`ǐl 2 حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ أَحْ٠َّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ الْوَشَّاءِ عَنْ أَحْ٠َدَ بْنِ عَائِذٍ عَنْ أَبِي سَلَ٠ٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (ع) قَالَ لَ٠َةُ بِالْحُسَيْنِ جَاءَ جَبْرَئِيلُ (ع) إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِص فَقَالَ إِنَّ فَاطِ٠َةَ سَتَلِدُ وَلَداً تَقْتُلُهُ أُ٠ِنْ بَعْدِكَ فَلَ٠َةُ بِالْحُسَيْنِ كَرِهَتْ حَ٠ْلَهُ وَ حِينَ وَضَعَتْهُ كَرِهَتْ وَضْعَهُ ثُ٠َّ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (ع) هَلْ رَأَيْتُ٠ْ فِي الدُّنْيَا أُ٠ّاً تَلِدُ غُلَا٠اً فَتَكْرَهُهُ وَ لَكِنَّهَا كَرِهَتْهُ لِأَنَّهَا عَلِ٠َتْ أَنَّهُ سَيُقْتَلُ قَالَ وَ فِيهِ نَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ- وَ وَصَّيْنَا الْإِنْسانَ بِوالِدَيْهِ حُسْناً حَ٠ُّهُ كُرْهاً وَ وَضَعَتْهُ كُرْهاً وَ حَ٠ْلُهُ وَ فِصالُهُ ثَلاثُونَ شَهْراً 2. My father narrated to me from Sa’d ibn ‘Abdillāh, from Aḥmad ibn Muḥammad ibn ‘Isā, from Ḥasan ibn ‘Ali Al-Washā`, from Aḥmad ibn ‘Ā`idh, from Abī Salamah Sālim ibn Mukram, who said: Abū ‘Abdillāh (Imam Sādiq (a.s.)) said: When Fāťimah (s.a.) became pregnant with Ḥusain (a.s.), Jabra`īl came to the Messenger of Allāh (s.a.a.w.) and said, “Verily Fāťimah will give birth to a son who will be killed by your nation after you.” Therefore, Fāťimah (s.a.) was averse to her pregnancy while she was carrying Ḥusain (a.s.), and she was averse to giving birth to him when she did. Then Imam (a.s.) continued: Have you ever seen a mother in this world being averse to giving birth to a son?! Her aversion came from knowing that he would be killed. This verse was revealed about him (Ḥusain (a.s.)), “We have enjoined on man to do good to his parents; his mother bears him with aversion, and with aversion she gives birth to him; and bearing him and weaning him takes thirty months” (46:15).
