(9) Abdul Wahid bin Abdullah bin Younus narrated from Ahmad bin Muhammad bin Rabah az-Zuhri from Ahmad bin Ali al-Himyari from al-Hakam, the brother of Mushma’all al-Asadi, that Abdur Raheem al-Qaseer had said: I said to Abu Ja’far al-Baqir : Does the saying of Amirul Mo’mineen “May my father die for him! The son of the best of bondmaids,” refer to Fatima ?” He said: “Fatima is the best of free ladies. He (al-Mahdi) is the one with a big abdomen and a red face. May Allah have mercy upon so-and-so!”
