حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُوسَى، ثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ كَثِيرٍ، ثَنَا سَلْمَى بْنُ عُقْبَةَ الْحَنَفِيُّ الْيَمَامِيُّ، ثَنَا عِكْرِمَةُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ:
قَالَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، أَيُّمَا أَحَبُّ إِلَيْكَ: أَنَا أَمْ فَاطِمَةُ ؟ قَالَ: فَاطِمَةُ أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِنْكَ، وَأَنْتَ أَعَزُّ عَلَيَّ مِنْهَا، وَكَأَنِّي بِكَ وَأَنْتَ عَلَى حَوْضِي تَذُودُ عَنْهُ النَّاسَ، وَإِنَّ عَلَيْهِ لَأَبَارِيقَ مِثْلَ عَدَدِ نُجُومِ السَّمَاءِ، وَإِنِّي وَأَنْتَ وَالْحَسَنُ وَالْحُسَيْنُ وَفَاطِمَةُ وَعَقِيلٌ وَجَعْفَرٌ فِي الْجَنَّةِ إِخْوَانًا عَلَى سُرُرٍ مُتَقَابِلِينَ، وَأَنْتَ مَعِي وَشِيعَتُكَ فِي الْجَنَّةِ "، ثُمَّ قَرَأَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: إِخْوَانًا عَلَى سُرُرٍ مُتَقَابِلِينَ لَا يَنْظُرُ أَحَدُهُمْ فِي قَفَا صَاحِبِهِ

✧ 'Ali b. Abi Talib said: 'O Messenger of God, which is dearer to you: me or Fatimah?' He said: 'Fatimah is dearer to me than you, and you are mightier to me than her. It is as if I see you at my basin driving people away from it. Upon it are pitchers like the number of stars in the sky. I, you, al-Hasan, al-Husayn, Fatimah, 'Aqil, and Ja'far will be in Paradise as brothers on couches facing one another. You are with me, and your Shi'ah are in Paradise.' Then the Messenger of God ﷺ recited: 'Brothers on couches facing one another; none of them will look at the back of his companion.'
