حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُصْعَبٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الْأَوْزَاعِيُّ عَنْ شَدَّادٍ أَبِي عَمَّارٍ قَالَ

دَخَلْتُ عَلَى وَاثِلَةَ بْنِ الْأَسْقَعِ وَعِنْدَهُ قَوْمٌ، فَذَكَرُوا عَلِيًّا فَلَمَّا قَامُوا، قَالَ لِي: أَلَا أُخْبِرُكَ بِمَا رَأَيْتُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ ؟ قُلْتُ: بَلَى. قَالَ: أَتَيْتُ فَاطِمَةَ ؓ أَسْأَلُهَا عَنْ عَلِيٍّ قَالَتْ: تَوَجَّهَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ، فَجَلَسْتُ أَنْتَظِرُهُ حَتَّى جَاءَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَمَعَهُ عَلِيٌّ وَحَسَنٌ وَحُسَيْنٌ ؓ، آخِذٌ كُلَّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمَا بِيَدِهِ، حَتَّى دَخَلَ فَأَدْنَى عَلِيًّا وَفَاطِمَةَ، فَأَجْلَسَهُمَا بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ، وَأَجْلَسَ حَسَنًا وَحُسَيْنًا كُلَّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمَا عَلَى فَخِذِهِ، ثُمَّ لَفَّ عَلَيْهِمْ ثَوْبَهُ، أَوْ قَالَ: كِسَاءً، ثُمَّ تَلَا هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ: إِنَّمَا يُرِيدُ اللهُ لِيُذْهِبَ عَنْكُمُ الرِّجْسَ أَهْلَ الْبَيْتِ وَيُطَهِّرَكُمْ تَطْهِيرًا وَقَالَ: اللَّهُمَّ هَؤُلَاءِ أَهْلُ بَيْتِي، وَأَهْلُ بَيْتِي أَحَقُّ

✧ I entered upon Wathila bin Al-Asqa' while he was with some people, and they mentioned Ali. When they stood up, he said to me, "Shall I not inform you of what I saw from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ?" I said, "Yes." He said, "I went to Fatimah to ask her about Ali." She said, "He has gone to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ." So I sat waiting for him until the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came with Ali, Hasan, and Husayn, each holding one of their hands, until they entered. He brought Ali and Fatimah closer and seated them in front of him, and seated Hasan and Husayn on his knees, then wrapped them with his cloak or said garment. Then he recited this verse: {Indeed, Allah intends to remove impurity from you, O people of the [Prophet’s] household, and to purify you with [extensive] purification} (Al-Ahzab 33). And he said, "O Allah, these are my household (Ahl al-Bayt), and my household are more deserving."
