Appendix 1

• Abu Saeed Al-Khudari said regarding His words (m), ﴾He has merged the two seas that meet﴿:

These are Ali and Fatima. They do not transgress one another. ﴾Pearls and coral come out from both of them﴿, these are Al-Hassan and Al-Hussain, may the prayers of Allah be upon all of them.[1]

• Ibn Abbas said regarding His words (m) ﴾He has merged the two seas﴿:

These are Ali and Fatima. ﴾There is a barrier between them. They do not encroach﴿, That is the Prophet pbuhap. ﴾Pearls and coral come out from both of them﴿, these are Al-Hassan and Al-Hussain pbut.[2]

• Abu Thar (may Allah be satisfied with him) said regarding His words (m), ﴾He has merged the two seas that meet﴿,

These are Ali and Fatima pbut. ﴾Pearls and coral come out from both of them﴿, these are Al-Hassan and Al-Hussain pbut. Who has ever seen like these four, Ali, Fatima, Al-Hasssan and Al-Hussain pbut? None loves them but a believer, and none hates them but a disbeliever, so become believers by the love of Ahlul Bayt, and do not become disbelievers by the hate of Ahlul Bayt so that you would be thrown in hellfire.[3]

• Ibn Abbas narrated that Fatima pbuh cried due to hunger and lack of clothing so the Prophet pbuhap said,

Be content, O Fatima, with your husband as I swear by Allah that he is a master in this world and a master in the hereafter and He swt has reconciled them so Allah descended the verse, ﴾He has merged the two seas that meet﴿, saying, “I am Allah, I have sent the two seas Ali bin Abi Talib pbuh, the sea of knowledge, and Fatima, the sea of prophecy, which meet together and connect. I am Allah, I caused the link between them. He then said, ﴾There is a barrier between them.﴿, a barrier, [who is] the Messenger of Allah pbuhap who prevents Ali bin Abi Talib from being sad for the sake of this world, and prevents Fatima from disagreeing with her husband for the sake of this world. ﴾Which of the signs of your Lord﴿, O Jinn and Mankind, ﴾will you both deny?﴿, the allegiance of the Prince of Believers pbuh or the love of Fatima Al-Zahra pbuh? And the pearls are Al-Hassan and coral is Al-Hussain, because pearls are the major and coral are the minor.”[4]

They do not encroach.﴿, he said, “Ali does not transgress over Fatima nor does Fatima transgresses over Ali. ﴾Pearls and coral come out from both of them.﴿, Al-Hassan and Al-Hussain pbut. Who has ever seen like these four, Ali, Fatima, Al-Hasssan and Al-Hussain? None loves them but a believer, and none hates them but a disbeliever, so become believers by the love of Ahlul Bayt, and do not become disbelievers by the hate of Ahlul Bayt so that you would be thrown in hellfire.”[7]

• Abdullah bin Masood (may Allah be satisfied with him) was once at a gathering of the Muhajrereen and the Ansar, and he was asked about the saying of Allah ﴾There is a barrier between them. They do not encroach﴿. He said,

Ali does not transgress over Fatima nor does Fatima transgress over Ali. By what Allah has given him and favored him from His grace, Ali favors Fatima. They had their two sons who brought them great joy. They are a bright and clear touchstone of light which were made particular to Ali and Fatima from amongst all the people of heaven. Ali looks at Fatima and finds great joy, and looks at his sons and finds happiness. And Allah bestows His favor upon whoever he wishes, and this is the most generous, merciful and kind favor.
23. ﴾They will exchange with one another a cup wherein no ill-speech or commission of sin.﴿
-Surat At-Tur (Mount Sinai) 52.
These are the Prince of Believers Ali, Fatima, Al-Hassan and Al-Hussain pbut, with no preciosity. Each one of them is at their rightful place, and the favor bestowed upon them stretches for as far as their eyes can see. ﴾Then on that day none from among Mankind or Jinn will be asked about his guilt﴿.[9]
