I-asws fear the dependants and the need from Fadak’. Ali-asws ratified with it. He-saww said: ‘It is a charity upon you-asws I-saww believe you-asws. so take possession of it’. She-asws said: ‘Yes’. Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘O umm Ayman-ra! Be witness! And O Ali-asws! Be witness! ’’
Umar said, ‘You-ra are a woman, and we cannot allow a testimony of one woman, and as for Ali-asws, he-asws is drawn to himself-asws (biased witness)’. He (Abu Abdullah-asws) said, ‘She-asws stood up angrily and said: ‘O Allah-azwj! These two have been unjust to the daughter-asws of Your-azwj Prophet-saww of her-asws right, so Intensify Your-azwj Trampling upon them both! ’
Then she-asws went out and Ali-asws carried her-asws upon an mule (carrier) having a cloak with feathers upon it. He-asws circles with her-asws for forty morning among the houses of the Emigrants and the Helpers, and Al-Hassan-asws and Al-Husayn-asws were with them-asws, and she-asws was saying: ‘O community of the Emigrants and the Helpers! Help Allah-azwj and daughter-asws of your Prophet-saww! And you had pledged allegiance to Rasool-Allah-saww the day you had pledged allegiance to him-saww that you will defend him-saww and his-saww offspring from what you would be defending yourselves and your offspring. So, be loyal to Rasool-Allah-saww with your allegiances! ’
