Hadith 72

(The book) ‘Al Manaqib’ of Ibn Shehr Ashub, (and) ‘Al Kharaij Wa Al Jaraih’ –
‘Ali-asws borrowed some barley from a Jew, and pawned something to him. He-asws gave him a cloak of (Syeda) Fatima-asws as pledge, and it was of wool. So the Jew entered it to a house and placed it in a room. When it was night, his wife entered the room in which was the cloak for something and she saw light shining in the roof, and all of it was illuminated by it. She went to her husband and informed him with what she had seen in that room, the magnificent light. The Jew, her husband, was astounded, and he had forgotten that in his room was a cloak of (Syeda) Fatima-asws. He got up quickly and entered the room and there, it was filled with illumination, its rays were spread out as if it was radiation from the radiant moon shining from nearby. He was astonished from that, and he deliberated the looking into the place of the cloak, and he knew that light was from the cloak of Fatima-asws. The Jew went out calling his relatives and his wife called over her relatives. So, eighty from the Jews gathered, and they saw that, and they became Muslims, all of them’’. [87]
