Hadith 4727

(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ نُمَيْرٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا فُضَيْلٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ غَزْوَانَ ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ ، أَنّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَتَى فَاطِمَةَ ، فَوَجَدَ عَلَى بَابِهَا سِتْرًا ، فَلَمْ يَدْخُلْ عَلَيْهَا ، وَقَلَّمَا كَانَ يَدْخُلُ إِلَّا بَدَأَ بِهَا ، قَالَ : فَجَاءَ عَلِيٌّ ، فَرَآهَا مُهْتَمَّةً ، فَقَالَ : مَالَكِ ؟ فَقَالَتْ : جَاءَ إِلَيَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَلَمْ يَدْخُلْ عَلَيَّ ، فَأَتَاهُ عَلِيٌّ ، فَقَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، إِنَّ فَاطِمَةَ اشْتَدَّ عَلَيْهَا أَنَّكَ جِئْتَهَا ، فَلَمْ تَدْخُلْ عَلَيْهَا ! فَقَالَ : " وَمَا أَنَا وَالدُّنْيَا ، وَمَا أَنَا وَالرَّقْمُ " ، قَالَ : فَذَهَبَ إِلَى فَاطِمَةَ ، فَأَخْبَرَهَا بِقَوْلِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالَتْ : فَقُلْ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَمَا تَأْمُرُنِي بِهِ ؟ فَقَالَ : " قُلْ لَهَا تُرْسِلُ بِهِ إِلَى بَنِي فُلَانٍ " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that once the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) went to the house of Sayyidah Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her). He saw a curtain hanging at the door of her house, so he turned back from there. It was very rare that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would go to her and not begin with her. In short, after a little while, Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) came and saw that Sayyidah Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her) appeared sad. He asked, "What happened?" She replied, "The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came, but did not enter the house (and returned from outside)." Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) went to the service of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said, "O Messenger of Allah! Fatimah has felt this very deeply that you came to her but did not enter the house?" The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "What concern do I have with the world? What concern do I have with these decorated curtains?" Upon hearing this, Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) went to Sayyidah Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her) and conveyed to her the statement of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). She said, "Please ask the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), what is the command for me now?" The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Tell Fatimah to send it to the people of such-and-such tribe."
