Hadith 239
۞
My father (rh) narrated to us. He said: Habib b. al-Husayn al-Taghlubi narrated to us. He said: `Ibad b. Ya`qub narrated to us from `Amr b. Thabit from Abu’l Jarud from Abu Ja`far (as). He said
The Prophet (s) was in the house of Umm Salama (ra), when he said to her: Do not let anyone enter. Al-Husayn (as) came and was a small child (then). She could not hold anything against him to the point that he visited the Prophet (s). So, Umm Salama entered, following him. And when al-Husayn was upon his chest, the Prophet (s) was weeping and in his hand was a thing which he turned over/examined. Then the Prophet (s) said: O Umm Salama! This Jibra’il has informed me that this [one] shall be killed. And this is the soil which he will be killed upon. So, keep it with you. When it turns into blood, my beloved would have been killed. So, Umm Salama said: O Messenger of Allah! Ask Allah to repel that from him. He said: I had done so. And Allah revealed to me: That for him is a rank which none from the creatures shall attain and that for his Shi`a is that they will intercede, and they will receive intercession. And that the Mahdi is from his offspring. So, blessed is one who is from the friends of al-Husayn. And his Shi`a are, by Allah, the successful ones on the Day of Resurrection.
219 / 3 - حدثنا أبي (رحمه الله)، قال: حدثنا حبيب بن الحسين التغلبي، قال: حدثنا عباد بن يعقوب، عن عمرو بن ثابت، عن أبي الجارود، عن أبي جعفر (عليه السلام)، قال
كان النبي (صلى الله عليه وآله) في بيت أم سلمة (رضي الله عنه)، فقال لها: لا يدخل علي أحد. فجاء الحسين (عليه السلام) وهو طفل، فما ملكت معه شيئا حتى دخل على النبي (صلى الله عليه وآله)، فدخلت أم سلمة على أثره، فإذا الحسين على صدره، وإذا النبي (صلى الله عليه وآله) يبكي، وإذا في يده شئ يقلبه، فقال النبي (صلى الله عليه وآله): يا أم سلمة، إن هذا جبرئيل يخبرني أن هذا مقتول، وهذه التربة التي يقتل عليها، فضعيها عندك، فإذا صارت دما فقد قتل حبيبي، فقالت أم سلمة: يا رسول الله، سل الله أن يدفع ذلك عنه. قال: قد فعلت، فأوحى الله عز وجل إلي: أن له درجة لا ينالها أحد من المخلوقين، وأن له شيعة يشفعون فيشفعون، وأن المهدي من ولده، فطوبى لمن كان من أولياء الحسين، وشيعته هم والله الفائزون يوم القيامة (2).
