Musnad Abi Ya'la 3402 — the angel of rain asked his Lord
حَدَّثَنَا شَيْبَانُ ، حَدَّثَنَا عُمَارَةُ بْنُ زَاذَانَ ، حَدَّثَنَا ثَابِتٌ الْبُنَانِيُّ ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ ، قَالَ : اسْتَأْذَنَ مَلَكُ الْقَطْرِ رَبَّهُ أَنْ يَزُورَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَأَذِنَ لَهُ ، وَكَانَ فِي يَوْمِ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : يَا أُمَّ سَلَمَةَ ، احْفَظِي عَلَيْنَا الْبَابَ لَا يَدْخُلْ عَلَيْنَا أَحَدٌ ، قَالَ : فَبَيْنَمَا هِيَ عَلَى الْبَابِ إِذْ جَاءَ الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ ، فَاقْتَحَمَ ، فَفَتَحَ الْبَابَ ، فَدَخَلَ ، فَجَعَلَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَلْتَزِمُهُ وَيُقَبِّلُهُ ، فَقَالَ الْمَلَكُ : أَتُحِبُّهُ ؟ قَالَ : نَعَمْ ، قَالَ : إِنَّ أُمَّتَكَ سَتَقْتُلُهُ ، إِنْ شِئْتَ أَرَيْتُكَ الْمَكَانَ الَّذِي تَقْتُلُهُ فِيهِ ، قَالَ : نَعَمْ ، قَالَ : فَقَبَضَ قَبْضَةً مِنَ الْمَكَانِ الَّذِي قُتِلَ بِهِ ، فَأَرَاهُ فَجَاءَ سَهْلَةٌ - أَوْ تُرَابٌ أَحْمَرُ - فَأَخَذَتْهُ أُمُّ سَلَمَةَ فَجَعَلَتْهُ فِي ثَوْبِهَا .
قَالَ ثَابِتٌ : فَكُنَّا نَقُولُ : إِنَّهَا كَرْبَلَاءُ .
قَالَ ثَابِتٌ : فَكُنَّا نَقُولُ : إِنَّهَا كَرْبَلَاءُ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that the angel of rain asked his Lord for permission to visit the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and Allah Almighty granted him permission. That day it was the turn of Sayyidah Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her) with him (peace and blessings be upon him), and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Umm Salamah! Guard the door for us and let no one come in to us." Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) said: While she was at the door, Sayyiduna Husayn bin Ali (may Allah be pleased with them both) suddenly came, rushed forward, opened the door and went in. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) began to hold him to his blessed chest and kiss him. Then the angel said: Do you love him? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Yes." The angel said: Indeed, your Ummah will soon kill him (as a martyr), and if you wish, I will show you the place where he will be martyred. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Very well." Then the angel took a handful of soil from the place where he was martyred and showed it to him (peace and blessings be upon him); it was soft sandy soil or red soil, which Sayyidah Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her) took and tied in the edge of her garment. Thabit (may Allah have mercy on him) said: We used to say that that place is Karbala.
