لَمَّا أَمَرَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ رَسُولَهُ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) بِإِظْهَارِ الْإِسْلَامِ وَ ظَهَرَ الْوَحْيُ رَأَى قِلَّةً مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ وَ كَثْرَةً مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ فَاهْتَمَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) هَمّاً شَدِيداً فَبَعَثَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ إِلَيْهِ جَبْرَئِيلَ ( عليه السلام ) بِسِدْرٍ مِنْ سِدْرَةِ الْمُنْتَهَى فَغَسَلَ بِهِ رَأْسَهُ فَجَلَا بِهِ هَمَّهُ .
Translation
From him, form Muhammad Bin Ali, from Ubeyd Bin yahya Al Sowr Al Attar, from Muhammad Bin Al Husayn Al Alawy, from his father, from his grandfather, (It has been narrated) from Ali<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘When Allah<sup>azwj</sup> Mighty and Majestic Commanded His<sup>azwj</sup> Rasool<sup>saww</sup> with the manifestation of Al-Islam and the Revelation appeared, he<sup>saww</sup> saw the scarcity of the Muslims and abundance of the Polytheists. So Rasool-Allah<sup>saww</sup> was aggrieved by an intense grief. So Allah<sup>azwj</sup> Sent Jibraeel<sup>as</sup> to him<sup>saww</sup> with a lotus from the Lotus Tree (<span class="iTxt">Al-Sidrat Al-Muntaha</span>). So he<sup>saww</sup> washed his<sup>saww</sup> head with it, and his<sup>saww</sup> grief was removed by it’.
