Hadith 30

(The book) ‘Al-Manaqib of Ibn Shehr Ashub’ – He-asws, may the Salawaat of Allah-azwj be upon him-asws, prosed on the day of Al-Taff (Karbala): ‘The people committed Kufr and they desired for long’ – up to the end of what has passed from the couplets, and there is an addition in what is between it there is: ‘(Syeda) Fatima Al-Zahra-asws is my-asws mother-asws, and my-asws father-asws inherited the Prophet-saww, Master-saww of the Jinn and the human beings. He-asws grinded the heroes when they came out for duel on the day of Badr, and at Ohad, and Hunayn, and the dependable at Khyber when he-asws duelled them with a cutting sword with two blades, and the one-asws the armies had intended, so they came seeking him-asws being alone during the day of Hunayn. Who has for him an uncle like mine-asws? Allah-azwj has Gifted him-asws two wings. My-asws grandfather-saww is the one-saww Sent as a lamp of guidance, and my-asws father-asws is the one‑asws loyal to him-saww with the two allegiances. A hero, honourable, a ravaging lion, glorious, liberal, strong of the forearms. The handhold of religion is Ali-asws, with plenty, master of the Fountain, prayer to the two Qiblahs with Rasool-Allah-saww, when he-asws was seven (years) complete. There were no prayers upon the earth apart from these two. Neglecter of the idols, not having prostrated to these with Quraysh since he-asws grew, even for the blink of an eye. An my-asws father-asws was a ravaging lion. He-asws would grab a spear and stab two stabbings, like the walking of the lions, suddenly, so he-asws made (enemies) to drink from blood of corpses, the two colocynths’’. [47]
