Ahmad Ibn Mihran - may Allah have mercy on him - narrated to me in a marfu' manner, alongside Ahmad Ibn Idris from Muhammad Ibn Abd al-Jabbar al-Shaybani from al-Qasim Ibn Muhammad al-Razi from Ali Ibn Muhammad al-Hurmuzani that Abi 'Abdillah al-Husayn Ibn Ali said: “When Fatima passed away, Amir al-Mu’minin Ali buried her secretly and camouflaged the location of her grave. Then he stood up and turned his face towards the grave of Rasulullah and said, ‘Peace be upon you, Oh Rasullulah from me and from your daughter - your visitor, and the one who rests in the earth near you; chosen by Allah to join you swiftly. Say, Oh Rasulullah, regarding your beloved, my patience and pardon for Sayyidat al-Nisa al-’Alameen’s distress, except that for me in emulating your sunnah in your separation, there is a place of comfort. Indeed, I have made sure you are not lonely in your grave while your soul left your body, between my own throat and chest. Indeed, in the Book of Allah, I find the most gracious of acceptance «Indeed, we belong to Allah, and indeed to Him we shall return» (2:156). The trust has been betrayed, the pledge seized, al-Zahraa has been taken away from us. How ugly the lush fields and barren lands (now) seem, Oh Rasulullah! As for my grief, it is endless and as for my nights, they are sleepless. Anxiety will never leave my heart until Allah (swt) places me in the same abode as you. How swift our separation was! To Allah, I complain, and your daughter will inform you of the distress of your community over her oppression. So, ask her and inquire about her condition, for many are the aggrieved whose chests find no relief, nor do they find a way to express their sorrow. And she will say, 'Woe unto them, and Allah will judge, and He is the best of judges.' I offer my prayer to Allah to grant you blessings as a note of farewell, but not because of disappointment and despair. If I return (to your grave), it is not that I have become tired and if I stand (to leave) it will not be because of my pessimism in the promise of Allah to those who exercise patience. Indeed, to exercise patience is more safe and beautiful. Had it not been for the dominance of the mischievous ones, I would have made my stay bound and fixed and not resort to that of a weak against the strong to preserve my honor. By the grace of Allah, your daughter is buried in secrecy, her rights are taken away unjustly, her inheritance withheld. The covenant has not been broken, nor has the memory faded from you. To Allah, Oh Rasulullah, I complain, and from you seek condolences. May Allah's blessings and peace and pleasure be upon you and upon her."
