Hadith 23
۞
(1) Abu Sulayman bin Hawtha al-Bahili narrated from Ibraheem bin Iss’haq an-Nahawandi from Abu Muhammad Abdullah bin Hammad al-Ansari from Amr bin Shimr from al-Mubarak bin Fudhala that al-Hasan bin Abul Hasan al-Basri had said
“Gabriel came to the Prophet (S) and said: “O Muhammad! Allah orders you to marry Fatima to your brother Ali.” The Prophet (S) sent for Ali and said to him: “O Ali, I will marry my daughter Fatima, the head lady of the women of the world and the most beloved one to me, to you and there will be from you (your offspring) the two masters of the martyrs of Paradise, the oppressed bloodstained martyrs on the earth after me and the highborn progeny, with whom Allah will defeat injustice, revive the truth and finish off the untruth. Their number is like the number of the months of a year. Behind the last one of them Prophet Jesus the son of Blessed Virgin Mary (as) will offer the prayer.”
1 - أخبرنا أبو سليمان أحمد بن هوذة أبي هراسة الباهلي، قال: حدثنا إبراهيم بن إسحاق النهاوندي سنة ثلاث وسبعين ومائتين، قال: حدثنا أبو محمد عبد الله بن حماد الأنصاري سنة تسع وعشرين ومائتين، قال: حدثنا عمرو بن شمر، عن المبارك بن فضالة، عن الحسن بن أبي الحسن البصري يرفعه قال
أتى جبرئيلُ النبيَّ فقال: يا محمدُ إن الله يأمرُك أن تزوّجَ فاطمةَ من عليٍّ أخيكَ. فأرسَلَ رسولُ الله إلى عليّ فقال له: يا عليُّ، إنّي مُزوّجُك فاطمةَ ابنتي سيدَةَ نساءِ العالمين وأحبَّهُن إلى بعدَك، وكائنٌ منكما سيّدا شبابِ أهل الجنة والشّهداء المضرّجونَ المقهورون في الأرض مِن بعدي والنجباءُ الزّهرُ الذين يطفئُ الله بهم الظلمَ ويُحيى بهم الحقَ ويُميتُ بهم الباطل؛ عِدَّتُهم عدّة أشهُر السنةِ، آخرُهم يصلّي عيسى بن مريم خلفه.
