Hadith 25

(The book) ‘Ghayba’ of the Sheykh Al Tusi – Ahmad Bin Ali, from Muhammad Bin Ali, from Ali Bin Samie Bin Bunan, from Muhammad Bin Ali Bin Abu Al dary, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Ahmad Bin Abdullah, from Ahmad Bin Rawh Al Ahwazy, from Muhammad Bin Ibrahim, ‘From (Syeda) Hakeema-as in a Hadeeth of similar meaning as the first, except that he said that she-as said: ‘Abu Muhammad-asws sent for me-as one night in the middle of the month of Ramazan in the year two hundred and fifty-five. She-as said: ‘And I-as said to him-asws: ‘O son-asws of Rasool-Allah-saww! Who is his-ajfj mother-as? ’ He-asws said: ‘Narjis-as’. She-as said: ‘When it was during the third day, my-as yearning to the Guardian-ajfj of Allah-azwj intensified, so I-as went to them-asws returning. I-as began with the room in which the slave girl had been, and there I-as was with her-as seated in a posture of the woman with a child, and upon her-as were yellow garments, and she-as was of bandaged head. I-as greeted unto her-as and she-as turned to a side of the room, and there was a cradle, upon it were green (pieces of) clothes. I-as went to the cradle and raised the clothes, and there I-as was with the Guardian-ajfj of Allah-azwj sleeping upon his-ajfj back, without having been bound nor swaddled. He-ajfj opened his-ajfj eyes and went on to giggle and wiggle with his-ajfj fingers. I-as took him-ajfj and drew him-ajfj closer to my-as mouth to kiss him-ajfj. I-as smelt an aroma from him-ajfj I-as had not smelt (before) at all any more aromatic than it, and Abu Muhammad-asws called out to me-as: ‘O my-asws aunt! Bring my-asws son-ajfj to me-asws! ’ I-as gave him-ajfj, and he-asws said: ‘O my-asws son-ajfj, speak! ’ – and he mentioned the Hadeeth. She-as said: ‘Then I-as took him-ajfj from him-asws, and he-asws was saying: ‘O my-asws son-ajfj! I-asws entrust you to the One-azwj Whom the mother-as of Musa-as had entrusted to. Be in the deposit of Allah-azwj and His-azwj Veil, and His-azwj vicinity’. And he-asws said: ‘Return him-ajfj to his-ajfj mother-as, O aunt, and conceal the news of this new-born upon us-asws, and do not inform anyone with it, until the writing reaches its (end of) term; [2: 235]’. I-as came to his-ajfj mother-as and bade farewell to them-asws’ – and mentioned the Hadeeth up to its end’’. [27]
