Tradition 3Through successive chain of authorities, Shaikh Sadooq relates from his chain of authorities from Ibne Abbas that, Imam Ali (a.s) asked the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.s), "Do you hold Aqeel dear to yourself"? The Prophet replied, "Yes by Allah! I do hold him dear due to two reasons. The first being that I personally hold him dear, second being that Abu Talib loved him, and that his son (Muslim) will die befriending your son (Imam Husain). And verily the eyes of the believers will weep (over his martyrdom) and the Angels close to Allah will send blessings upon him." The Prophet started weeping and tears fell upon his chest, then he said, "I complain to Allah regarding that (pain and sufferings) which my Progeny will have to bear after my death." |
