After the burial of Moulatena Fatema (AS), Amirul Mumineen (AS) expressed his deep sorrows to Nabi Saheb (AS) for his deceased daughter. These are one of the saddest words of Amirul Mumineen (as) ever recorded. No one can really translate and depict the pathos that the words of Amirul Mumineen (AS) carried in them.

Amirul Mumineen (as) says:

“Accept, Oh Rasulallah! My salaam and those of your daughter who is buried not very far from you, and who returned to meet you so quickly. Her death has left me no patiencenor solace. I have lost my self-retrain and power of endurance. Except that to follow the same path of patience that I did upon your sepration. Oh! How patiently I laid you in your grave, your soul departed from the body while you rested on my chest, your head lying between my nack and heart. “Surely we belong to Allah and towards him we are to return”.Your Trust (daughter)which was entrusted to me has been taken back. Sorrow now abides with me and happiness has taken leave. My grief is forever and my nights are sleepless. This will continue to be till the day we meet.”

“Oh Rasulallah! Your daughter will inform you of the attrocities of your Ummat upon us. Do inquire about our situation and ask every detail, surely has not been too long since you departed and nor have you been forgotten. Upon you both is my parting salaam. Not of hate or tiredness, but of a well-wisher. I leave not because I am tired of your company and if I stay its not because I doubt the reward that Allah has reserved for those who bear sorrows patiently.”

Such was the lament of Amirul Mumineen (AS) on Fatema’s grave. A grave where the tears of Moulatena Fatema (AS) are preserved for the Shafa’at of Mumineen. Aqa Moula (TUS) had described in a wa’az that when he performed the Ziyarat of Moulatena Fatema (AS) he remebered this incident. Great honor for those eyes that have seen this moment happen. may Allah fulfill the wish of Aqa Moula (TUS) to prepare the Zarih of Fatema (AS) and may he fulfill our wish of ziyarat of Fatema (AS) with Aqa Moula (TUS) when we could ask her duas for our Moula’s long life.
