The Birth of al-Husayn ibn Ali عليه السلام

6ـ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْحَسَنِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى بْنِ عُبَيْدٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَسْبَاطٍ عَنْ سَيْفِ بْنِ عَمِيرَةَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ حُمْرَانَ قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) لَمَّا كَانَ مِنْ أَمْرِ الْحُسَيْنِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) مَا كَانَ ضَجَّتِ الْمَلائِكَةُ إِلَى الله بِالْبُكَاءِ وَقَالَتْ يُفْعَلُ هَذَا بِالْحُسَيْنِ صَفِيِّكَ وَابْنِ نَبِيِّكَ قَالَ فَأَقَامَ الله لَهُمْ ظِلَّ الْقَائِمِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) وَقَالَ بِهَذَا أَنْتَقِمُ لِهَذَا.
6. Ahmad ibn Muhammad has narrated from Muhammad ibn al-Hassan from Muhammad ibn ‘Isa ibn ‘Ubayd from Ali ibn Asbat from Sayf ibn ‘Amira from Muhammad ibn humran who has said the following. “Abu ‘Abdallah عليه السلام has said, ‘When all that happened to al-Husayn had happened, the angels wept and cried before Allah and said, “How such thing would happen to al-Husayn Your chosen one and the grand son of Your Prophet?” The Imam عليه السلام has said that Allah then showed to them the shadow of Al-Qa’im (the one who will rise with Divine Authority) and said, “Through him I will take My revenge.”
