Hadith 71

(The book) ‘Al Kharaij Wa Al Jaraih –
‘Ali-asws woke up one morning and said to (Syeda) Fatima-asws: ‘Is there anything with you-asws to provide (breakfast)? ’ She-asws said: ‘No’. So, he-asws went out and borrowed a Dinar to but what would correct them, and there was Miqdad-ra in a struggle, and his-ra dependants were hungry. So, he-asws gave him-ra the Dinar and entered the Masjid and prayed Al-Zohr and Al-Asr with Rasool-Allah-saww. Then the Prophet-saww held a hand of Ali-asws and they-asws went to (Syeda) Fatima-asws, and she-asws was in her-asws prayer niche, and behind her-asws was an effervescing pot. When she-asws heard the speech of Rasool-Allah-saww, she-asws came out and greeted unto him-saww, and she-asws was the dearest of the people to him-saww. He-saww responded the greeting and wiped his-saww hand upon her-asws head, then said: ‘Give us-asws dinner, may Allah-azwj Forgive for you-asws, and He-azwj has already Done that! ’
She-asws took the pot and placed it in front of Rasool-Allah-saww. He-saww said: ‘O Fatima-asws! From where is this food for you-asws which I-saww have not seen the like of its type, ad not smelt like its aroma at all, and I-saww have not eaten better than it? ’ – and he-saww placed his-saww hand between my-asws shoulders and said: ‘This is a replacement from your-asws Dinar: Surely Allah Gives to whom He so Desires to without measure’ [3: 37]’’. [85]
I (Majlisi) am saying, ‘Al-Zamakhshari said in (the book) ‘Al-Kashaf’ at the mention of the story of Zakariya-as and Maryam-as, from the Prophet-saww that he-saww was hungry during a time of drought, so (Syeda) Fatima-asws gifted to him-saww two loaves and some meat, preferring him-saww with it. He-saww returned to her-asws with it and said: ‘Bring it to me-saww O daughter-asws! ’, and he-saww uncovered from the pot, and there it was, filled with bread and meat. She-asws was amazed and knew it had descended from Allah-azwj. He-saww said to her-asws: From where does this come to you? ’ She said: ‘It is from Allah. Surely Allah Gives to whom He so Desires to without measure’ [3: 37]. He-asws said: ‘The Praise is for Allah-azwj Who Made you-asws resembling chieftess of the women of the clan of Israel’. Then Rasool-Allah-saww gathered Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws, and Al-Hassan-asws, and Al-Husayn-asws, and entirety of People-asws of his-saww Household until they-asws were all satiated, and the food remained like what it had been, and Fatima-asws distributed it to her-asws neighbours’’.
