زَوَّجَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ( عليه السلام ) امْرَأَةً مِنْ بَنِي عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ وَ كَانَ يَلِي أَمْرَهَا فَقَالَ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الْعَزِيزِ الْجَبَّارِ الْحَلِيمِ الْغَفَّارِ الْوَاحِدِ الْقَهَّارِ الْكَبِيرِ الْمُتَعَالِ سَواءٌ مِنْكُمْ مَنْ أَسَرَّ الْقَوْلَ وَ مَنْ جَهَرَ بِهِ وَ مَنْ هُوَ مُسْتَخْفٍ بِاللَّيْلِ وَ سارِبٌ بِالنَّهارِ أَحْمَدُهُ وَ أَسْتَعِينُهُ وَ أُومِنُ بِهِ وَ أَتَوَكَّلُ عَلَيْهِ وَ كَفَى بِاللَّهِ وَكِيلًا مَنْ يَهْدِ اللَّهُ فَهُوَ الْمُهْتَدِي وَ لَا مُضِلَّ لَهُ وَ مَنْ يُضْلِلْ فَلَا هَادِيَ لَهُ وَ لَنْ تَجِدَ مِنْ دُونِهِ وَلِيّاً مُرْشِداً وَ أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ لَهُ الْمُلْكُ وَ لَهُ الْحَمْدُ وَ هُوَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْ‏ءٍ قَدِيرٌ وَ أَشْهَدُ أَنَّ مُحَمَّداً ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) عَبْدُهُ وَ رَسُولُهُ بَعَثَهُ بِكِتَابِهِ حُجَّةً عَلَى عِبَادِهِ مَنْ أَطَاعَهُ أَطَاعَ اللَّهَ وَ مَنْ عَصَاهُ عَصَى اللَّهَ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ وَ سَلَّمَ كَثِيراً إِمَامُ الْهُدَى وَ النَّبِيُّ الْمُصْطَفَى ثُمَّ إِنِّي أُوصِيكُمْ بِتَقْوَى اللَّهِ فَإِنَّهَا وَصِيَّةُ اللَّهِ فِي الْمَاضِينَ وَ الْغَابِرِينَ ثُمَّ تَزَوَّجَ.


Translation

Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Ismail Bin Mihran, from Ayman Bin Muhraz, from Amro Bin Shimr, from Jabir, (It has been narrated) from Abu Ja’far<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘Amir Al-Momineen<sup>asws</sup> solemnised the marriage of a woman from the Clan of Abdul Muttalib<sup>as</sup>, and he<sup>asws</sup> was in charge of her matter, so he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘The Praise is for Allah<sup>azwj</sup>, the Mighty, the Compeller, the Lenient, the Forgiver, and One, the Subduer, the Great, the Limitless. It is the same from you all, the one who speaks secretly and the one who publicises with it, and the one who is concealed at night, and the one is visible by the day. I<sup>asws</sup> Praise Him<sup>azwj</sup>, and seek His<sup>azwj</sup> Support, and believe in Him<sup>azwj</sup>, and rely upon Him<sup>azwj</sup>, and suffice with Allah<sup>azwj</sup> as a Representative. The one whom Allah<sup>azwj</sup> Guides, so he is the guided one and there is no straying for him, and the one who He<sup>azwj</sup> Lets to stray, so there is no guidance for him. And you will never find besides Him<sup>azwj</sup>, a Guardian, and a Guide. And I<sup>asws</sup> testify that there is no god except for Allah<sup>azwj</sup>, One, there being no associates for Him<sup>azwj</sup>. For Him<sup>azwj</sup> is the Kingdom, and for Him<sup>azwj</sup> is the Praise, and He<sup>azwj</sup> is Able upon everything. And I<sup>asws</sup> testify that Muhammad<sup>saww</sup> is His<sup>azwj</sup> servant and His<sup>azwj</sup> Rasool<sup>saww</sup>, having Sent him<sup>saww</sup> with His<sup>azwj</sup> Book, a proof upon His<sup>azwj</sup> servants. The one who obeys him<sup>saww</sup> would have obeyed Allah<sup>azwj</sup>, and the one who disobeys him<sup>saww</sup> would have disobeyed Allah<sup>azwj</sup>. Blessings me upon him<sup>saww</sup> and his<sup>saww</sup> Progeny<sup>asws</sup>, and abundant greetings, and Imam<sup>asws</sup> of the Guidance, and the Chosen Prophet<sup>saww</sup>. Then, I<sup>asws</sup> hereby advise you all with the fear of Allah<sup>azwj</sup>, for it was an Advice of Allah<sup>azwj</sup> in the past and the bygone (days)’. Then he<sup>asws</sup> solemnised the marriage’.
