[Machine] I went to Ali and did not find him, so Fatima said to me, "Go to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and call him." So he came with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and they entered, and I entered with them. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ called Hasan and Husayn and seated each of them on his thighs, brought Fatima closer to him, along with her husband, then wrapped them with a cloak and said, "Indeed, Allah only desires to remove impurities from you, O people of the household, and to purify you thoroughly." [Quran 33:33] Then he said, "These are my household. O Allah, they are more deserving."  

أَتَيْتُ عَلِيًّا فَلَمْ أَجِدْهُ فَقَالَتْ لِي فَاطِمَةُ انْطَلِقْ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَدْعُوهُ فَجَاءَ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَدَخَلَا وَدَخَلْتُ مَعَهُمَا فَدَعَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ الْحَسَنَ وَالْحُسَيْنَ فَأَقْعَدَ كُلَّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمَا عَلَى فَخِذَيْهِ وَأَدْنَى فَاطِمَةَ مِنْ حِجْرِهِ وَزَوْجِهَا ثُمَّ لَفَّ عَلَيْهِمْ ثَوْبًا وَقَالَ {إِنَّمَا يُرِيدُ اللَّهُ لِيُذْهِبَ عَنْكُمُ الرِّجْسَ} [الأحزاب 33] أَهْلَ الْبَيْتِ وَيُطَهِّرَكُمْ تَطْهِيرًا ثُمَّ قَالَ «هَؤُلَاءِ أَهْلُ بَيْتِي اللَّهُمَّ أَهْلُ بَيْتِي أَحَقُّ»  

[Machine] I came looking for Ali but did not find him. Fatimah said he went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ to call him, so I sat down. Then Ali came with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and they entered, and I entered with them. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ called Hasan and Husayn and seated each of them on his thigh. He brought Fatimah closer to him and her husband, then wrapped them with his cloak while I was present and said, "Indeed, Allah desires to remove impurity from you, O people of the household, and to purify you thoroughly." [Surah Al-Ahzab, 33:33] O Allah, these are the members of my household.  

جِئْتُ أُرِيدُ عَلِيًّا فَلَمْ أَجِدْهُ فَقَالَتْ فَاطِمَةُ انْطَلَقَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَدْعُوهُ فَاجْلِسْ فَجَاءَ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَدَخَلَ وَدَخَلْتُ مَعَهُمَا قَالَ فَدَعَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ حَسَنًا وَحُسَيْنًا فَأَجْلَسَ كُلَّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمَا عَلَى فَخِذِهِ وَأَدْنَى فَاطِمَةَ مِنْ حِجْرِهِ وَزَوْجَهَا ثُمَّ لَفَّ عَلَيْهِمْ ثَوْبَهُ وَأَنَا شَاهِدٌ فَقَالَ {إِنَّمَا يُرِيدُ اللَّهُ لِيُذْهِبَ عَنْكُمُ الرِّجْسَ أَهْلَ الْبَيْتِ وَيُطَهِّرَكُمْ تَطْهِيرًا} [الأحزاب 33] اللَّهُمَّ هَؤُلَاءِ أَهْلُ بَيْتِي  

[Machine] From Ali in his house, it was said to me that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ went and entered the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and I entered. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ sat on the bed and Fatimah sat on his right, and Ali sat on his left, and Hasan and Husayn sat in front of him. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Verily, Allah desires to remove impurity from you, O people of the household, and purify you completely." O Allah, these are my family." Wathilah said, "I said, 'Am I also from your family, O Messenger of Allah?' He said, 'And you are from my family.' Wathilah said, "Indeed, it is from the most hopeful things that I hope for."  

عَنْ عَلِيٍّ فِي مَنْزِلِهِ فَقِيلَ لِي ذَهَبَ يَأْتِي بِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِذْ جَاءَ فَدَخَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَدَخَلْتُ فَجَلَسَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَلَى الْفِرَاشِ وَأَجْلَسَ فَاطِمَةَ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ وَعَلِيًّا عَنْ يَسَارِهِ وَحَسَنًا وَحُسَيْنًا بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ وَقَالَ «{إِنَّمَا يُرِيدُ اللَّهُ لِيُذْهِبَ عَنْكُمُ الرِّجْسَ} أَهْلَ الْبَيْتِ وَيُطَهِّرَكُمْ تَطْهِيرًا اللَّهُمَّ هَؤُلَاءِ أَهْلِي» قَالَ وَاثِلَةُ فَقُلْتُ مِنْ نَاحِيَةِ الْبَيْتِ وَأَنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مِنْ أَهْلِكَ؟ قَالَ «وَأَنْتَ مِنْ أَهْلِي» قَالَ وَاثِلَةُ إِنَّهَا لَمِنْ أَرْجَى مَا أَرْتَجِي  

[Machine] This verse was revealed to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ while he was in the house of Umm Salamah. "Verily, Allah wants to remove impurity from you, O People of the Household, and purify you with a thorough purification." So, he called Hasan, Husayn, and Fatimah and sat them in front of him. He called Ali and sat him behind his back. Then he covered himself and them with a cloak. Then he said, "O Allah, these are the members of my household. Remove impurity from them and purify them with a thorough purification." Umm Salamah asked, "Can I be with them, O Messenger of Allah?" He replied, "You are in a good place."  

نَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ فِي بَيْتِ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ {إِنَّمَا يُرِيدُ اللهُ لِيُذْهِبَ عَنْكُمُ الرِّجْسَ أَهْلَ الْبَيْتِ وَيُطَهِّرَكُمْ تَطْهِيرًا} فَدَعَا الْحَسَنَ وَالْحُسَيْنَ وَفَاطِمَةَ فَأَجْلَسَهُمْ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ وَدَعَا عَلِيًّا فَأَجْلَسَهُ خَلْفَ ظَهْرِهِ وَتَجَلَّلَ هُوَ وَهُمْ بِالْكِسَاءِ ثُمَّ قَالَ «اللهُمَّ هَؤُلَاءِ أَهْلُ بَيْتِي فَأَذْهِبْ عَنْهُمُ الرِّجْسَ وَطَهِّرْهُمْ تَطْهِيرًا» فَقَالَتْ أُمُّ سَلَمَةَ وَأَنَا مَعَهُمْ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ؟ فَقَالَ «وَأَنْتِ مَكَانَكِ وَأَنْتِ عَلَى خَيْرٍ»  

[Machine] Fatimah set out to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ calling him until he came. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ entered and I entered with them. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ then called Hassan and Hussain and sat each of them on his thigh, and placed Fatimah closer to him than his own cloak. Then he covered them with his cloak while I was lying down. Then he said, "Indeed, Allah intends to keep away the impurity from you, O people of the household, and purify you with a thorough purification." Then he said, "These are my family, these are my family, they have more right (to my inheritance)." Wathilah said, "O Messenger of Allah, am I not from your family?" He said, "And you are from my family." Wathilah said, "And indeed, he is one of the things I hope for."  

فَاطِمَةُ انْطَلَقْ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ يَدْعُوهُ حَتَّى يَأْتِيَ فَجَاءَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ فَدَخَلَا فَدَخَلْتُ مَعَهُمَا فَدَعَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ حَسَنًا وَحُسَيْنًا فَأَجْلَسَ كُلَّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمَا عَلَى فَخِذِهِ وَأَدْنَى فَاطِمَةَ مِنْ حِجْرِهِ ثُمَّ لَفَّ عَلَيْهِمَا ثَوْبَهُ وَأَنَا مُسْنِدٌ ثُمَّ قَالَ {إِنَّمَا يُرِيدُ اللهُ لِيُذْهِبَ عَنْكُمُ الرِّجْسَ أَهْلَ الْبَيْتِ وَيُطَهِّرَكُمْ تَطْهِيرًا} ثُمَّ قَالَ «هَؤُلَاءِ أَهْلِي هَؤُلَاءِ أَهْلِي أَحَقُّ» قَالَ وَاثِلَةُ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ وَأَنَا مِنْ أَهْلِكَ؟ قَالَ «وَأَنْتَ مِنْ أَهْلِي» قَالَ وَاثِلَةُ وَإِنَّهُ لَمِنْ أَرْجَى مَا أَرْجُوهُ  

[Machine] Fatimah went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and called him until he came. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ came and Fatimah entered with him. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ called Hassan and Hussein and each of them sat on his lap, and Fatimah sat closest to his thigh. Then he covered them with his cloak while I was leaning against him. Then he said, "Indeed, Allah intends to remove impurity from you, O people of the household, and purify you with a thorough purification." Then he said, "These are my family." Wathila said, "I said, 'O Messenger of Allah, am I not from your family?' He said, 'And you are from my family.' Wathila said, 'Indeed, this is the most hopeful thing I hope for.'"  

فَاطِمَةُ انْطَلَقَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ يَدْعُوهُ حَتَّى يَأْتِيَ قَالَ فَجَاءَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَجَاءَ فَدَخَلْتُ مَعَهُمَا فَدَعَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ حَسَنًا وَحُسَيْنًا فَأَجْلَسَ كُلَّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمَا عَلَى فَخِذِهِ وَأَدْنَى فَاطِمَةَ مِنْ حِجْرِهِ ثُمَّ لَفَّ عَلَيْهِمْ ثَوْبَهُ وَأَنَا مُسْتَنِدٌ ثُمَّ قَالَ {إِنَّمَا يُرِيدُ اللهُ لِيُذْهِبُ عَنْكُمُ الرِّجْسَ أَهْلَ الْبَيْتِ وَيُطَهِّرَكُمْ تَطْهِيرًا} ثُمَّ قَالَ «هَؤُلَاءِ أَهْلِي» قَالَ وَاثِلَةُ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ وَأَنَا مِنْ أَهْلِكَ؟ قَالَ «وَأَنْتَ مِنْ أَهْلِي» قَالَ وَاثِلَةُ إِنَّهُ لَأَرْجَى مَا أَرْجُوهُ  

[Machine] I went to Fatimah to ask her about Ali, and she said, "He has gone to the Messenger of God ﷺ." Then the Messenger of God ﷺ came with Ali, Hasan, and Husayn, each holding his hand, and entered. He brought Ali and Fatimah close and seated them in front of him, and seated Hasan and Husayn each on one of his thighs. Then he wrapped them with his cloak and recited this verse: "God only desires to remove any impurity from you, O People of the Household, and to purify you thoroughly." Then he said, "O God, these are the members of my household, and my household is more deserving." I said, "O Messenger of God, am I also among your household?" He replied, "And you are among my household." Wathilah said, "This is one of the most hopeful things I hope for."  

أتَيْتُ فَاطِمَةَ أسْألُهَا عَنْ عَلِىٍّ فَقَالَتْ: تَوَجَّهَ إلى رَسُولِ الله ﷺ فَجَلَسَ، فَجَاءَ رَسُولُ الله ﷺ وَمَعَهُ عَلِىٌّ وَحَسَنٌ وَحُسَيْنٌ كُل وَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمْ بِيَدِهِ حَتَّى دَخَلَ فَأدْنَى عَلِيّا وَفَاطِمَةَ فَأجْلَسَهُمَا بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ، وَأَجْلَسَ حَسنًا وَحُسَيْنًا كُل وَاحِد مِنْهُمَا عَلَى فخِذهِ، ثُمَّ لَفَّ عَلَيْهِمْ ثَوْبَهُ أَوْ قَالَ كسَاءَهُ، ثُمَّ تَلَا هذِهِ الآيَةَ: {إِنَّمَا يُرِيدُ اللَّهُ لِيُذْهِبَ عَنْكُمُ الرِّجْسَ أَهْلَ الْبَيْتِ وَيُطَهِّرَكُمْ تَطْهِيرًا}، ثُمَ قَالَ: اللَّهُمَ هَؤُلَاءِ أهْلُ بَيتُى، وَأهْلُ بَيْتِى أحَق، فَقُلتُ يَا رَسُولَ الله: وَأنَا مِنْ أهْلِ بَيْتِكَ؟ قَالَ: وَأنْتَ مِنْ أهْلِى، قَالَ وَاثِلَةُ: إِنَهَا لَمِنْ أرْجَى مَا أرْجُو".
