2 حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ الْوَشَّاءِ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ عَائِذٍ عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ سَالِمِ بْنِ مُكَرَّمٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (ع) قَالَ لَمَّا حَمَلَتْ فَاطِمَةُ بِالْحُسَيْنِ جَاءَ جَبْرَئِيلُ (ع) إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِص فَقَالَ إِنَّ فَاطِمَةَ سَتَلِدُ وَلَداً تَقْتُلُهُ أُمَّتُكَ مِنْ بَعْدِكَ فَلَمَّا حَمَلَتْ فَاطِمَةُ بِالْحُسَيْنِ كَرِهَتْ حَمْلَهُ وَ حِينَ وَضَعَتْهُ كَرِهَتْ وَضْعَهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (ع) هَلْ رَأَيْتُمْ فِي الدُّنْيَا أُمّاً تَلِدُ غُلَاماً فَتَكْرَهُهُ وَ لَكِنَّهَا كَرِهَتْهُ لِأَنَّهَا عَلِمَتْ أَنَّهُ سَيُقْتَلُ قَالَ وَ فِيهِ نَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ- وَ وَصَّيْنَا الْإِنْسانَ بِوالِدَيْهِ حُسْناً حَمَلَتْهُ أُمُّهُ كُرْهاً وَ وَضَعَتْهُ كُرْهاً وَ حَمْلُهُ وَ فِصالُهُ ثَلاثُونَ شَهْراً

2. My father narrated to me from Sa’d ibn ‘Abdillāh, from Aḥmad ibn Muḥammad ibn ‘Isā, from Ḥasan ibn ‘Ali Al-Washā`, from Aḥmad ibn ‘Ā`idh, from Abī Salamah Sālim ibn Mukram, who said: Abū ‘Abdillāh (Imam Sādiq ) said: When Fāťimah (s.a.) became pregnant with Ḥusain , Jabra`īl came to the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ and said, “Verily Fāťimah will give birth to a son who will be killed by your nation after you.” Therefore, Fāťimah (s.a.) was averse to her pregnancy while she was carrying Ḥusain , and she was averse to giving birth to him when she did. Then Imam continued: Have you ever seen a mother in this world being averse to giving birth to a son?! Her aversion came from knowing that he would be killed. This verse was revealed about him (Ḥusain ), “We have enjoined on man to do good to his parents; his mother bears him with aversion, and with aversion she gives birth to him; and bearing him and weaning him takes thirty months” (46:15).
