Hadith 11390

عَنْ شَهْرِ بْنِ حَوْشَبٍ عَنْ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ لِفَاطِمَةَ ”ائْتِينِي بِزَوْجِكِ وَابْنَيْكِ“ فَجَاءَتْ بِهِمْ فَأَلْقَى عَلَيْهِمْ كِسَاءً فَدَكِيًّا قَالَ ثُمَّ وَضَعَ يَدَهُ عَلَيْهِمْ ثُمَّ قَالَ ”اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّ هَؤُلَاءِ آلُ مُحَمَّدٍ فَاجْعَلْ صَلَوَاتِكَ وَبَرَكَاتِكَ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَعَلَى آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ إِنَّكَ حَمِيدٌ مَجِيدٌ“ قَالَتْ أُمُّ سَلَمَةَ فَرَفَعْتُ الْكِسَاءَ لِأَدْخُلَ مَعَهُمْ فَجَذَبَهُ مِنْ يَدِي وَقَالَ ”إِنَّكِ عَلَى خَيْرٍ“
It is narrated from Sayyida Umm Salama (may Allah be pleased with her) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) said to Sayyida Fatima (may Allah be pleased with her): Bring your husband and your two sons to me. She called them and brought them. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) covered them with a prepared cloak from Fadak (a region of Khaybar), placed his hand over all of them, and said: O Allah! These people are the family of Muhammad, so send Your mercy and blessings upon Muhammad and the family of Muhammad. Surely, You are Praiseworthy and Glorious. Sayyida Umm Salama (may Allah be pleased with her) says: I lifted the cloak and tried to enter with them, but the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) pulled the cloak from my hand and said: You are already upon goodness and virtue.

Brief Explanation
Benefits: … Indeed, you are upon goodness. The apparent meaning of these words is that they (the wives) are not included among them, whereas the apparent meaning of the Noble Qur’an requires that the wives are included. It is possible that the meaning of this blessed hadith’s phrase is that, since they are in any case included among them, they are by default upon goodness and virtue.

This second meaning is the clearer one. (Abdullah Rafiq)
