Al-Kafi 10230

Translation

A number of our companions, from Ahmad Bin Abu Abdullah, from Ismail Bin Mihran, from Ubeyd Bin Muawiya Bin Shurayh, from Sayf Bin Amerya, from Amro Bin Shimr, from Jabir, (It has been narrated) from Abu Ja’far^asws, from Jabir Bin Abdullah Al-Ansary who said, ‘Rasool-Allah^saww went out to visit Fatima^asws and I was with him^saww. So when he^saww ended up to the door, he^saww placed his^saww hand upon it and knocked it, then said: ‘The greetings be upon you^asws!’ So Fatima^asws said: ‘And the greetings be upon you^saww, O Rasool-Allah^saww!’ He^saww said: ‘Can I^saww enter?’ She^asws said: ‘Enter, O Rasool-Allah^saww!’ He^saww said: ‘Can I^saww enter and the one who is with me^saww?’ So she^asws said: ‘O Rasool-Allah^saww! There is no scarf upon me^asws’. So he^saww said: ‘O Fatima^asws! Take the excess of your^asws bed spread, so cover your^asws head with it’. So she^asws did. Then he^saww said: ‘The greetings be upon you^asws!’. So Fatima^asws said: ‘And the greetings be upon you^saww, O Rasool-Allah^saww!’. He^saww said: ‘Can I^saww enter?’ She^asws said: ‘Yes, O Rasool-Allah^saww’. He^saww said: ‘I^saww and the one who is with me^saww?’ She^asws said: ‘And the one who is with you^saww’. Jabir said, ‘So Rasool-Allah^saww entered and I entered, and the face of Fatima^asws was pale like the belly of a locust. So Rasool-Allah^saww said: ‘What is the matter that I^saww see your^asws face as pale?’ She^asws said: ‘O Rasool-Allah^saww, the hunger’. So he^saww said: ‘O Allah^azwj, Satiator of the hunger and Repeller of the loss, Satiate Fatima^asws daughter^asws  of Muhammad^saww!’ Jabir said, ‘So, by Allah^azwj, I looked at the blood flowing from its flowing until her^asws face returned to being red. So she^asws did not suffer hunger after that day’.
