لَمَّا مَاتَتْ رُقَيَّةُ ابْنَةُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) الْحَقِي بِسَلَفِنَا الصَّالِحِ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ مَظْعُونٍ وَ أَصْحَابِهِ قَالَ وَ فَاطِمَةُ ( عليها السلام ) عَلَى شَفِيرِ الْقَبْرِ تَنْحَدِرُ دُمُوعُهَا فِي الْقَبْرِ وَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) يَتَلَقَّاهُ بِثَوْبِهِ قَائِماً يَدْعُو قَالَ إِنِّي لَأَعْرِفُ ضَعْفَهَا وَ سَأَلْتُ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ أَنْ يُجِيرَهَا مِنْ ضَمَّةِ الْقَبْرِ .

Humeyd Bin Ziyad, from Al Hassan Bin Muhammad Bin Sama’at, from someone else, from Aban, from Abu Baseer, (It has been narrated) from one of the two (5<sup>th</sup> or 6<sup>th</sup> Imam<sup>asws</sup>) having said: ‘When Ruqayya, a (step) daughter of Rasool-Allah<sup>saww</sup> died, Rasool-Allah<sup>saww</sup> said: ‘Join with our righteous ancestors, Usman Bin Mazoun and his companions’. He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘And Syeda Fatima<sup>asws</sup> was upon the verge of the grave, her<sup>asws</sup> tears flowing into the grave, and Rasool-Allah<sup>saww</sup> was catching these with his<sup>saww</sup> clothes, standing, supplicating, saying: ‘I<sup>saww</sup> recognise her (step-daughter) weakness, and I<sup>saww</sup> asked Allah<sup>azwj</sup> Mighty and Majestic that He<sup>azwj</sup> Rescue her from the squeezing of the grave’.
