3ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ رَفَعَهُ قَالَ لَمَّا حُمِلَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ (صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وآلِه) إِلَى يَزِيدَ بْنِ مُعَاوِيَةَ فَأُوقِفَ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ قَالَ يَزِيدُ لَعَنَهُ الله وَما أَصابَكُمْ مِنْ مُصِيبَةٍ فَبِما كَسَبَتْ أَيْدِيكُمْ فَقَالَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ (عَلَيهِما السَّلام) لَيْسَتْ هَذِهِ الآيَةُ فِينَا إِنَّ فِينَا قَوْلَ الله عَزَّ وَجَلَّ ما أَصابَ مِنْ مُصِيبَةٍ فِي الأرْضِ وَلا فِي أَنْفُسِكُمْ إِلا فِي كِتابٍ مِنْ قَبْلِ أَنْ نَبْرَأَها إِنَّ ذلِكَ عَلَى الله يَسِيرٌ.
3. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated in a marfu’ manner has narrated from Abu ‘Abd Allah عليه السلام who has said the following: “When Ali ibn al-Husayn عليه السلام was taken as a captive to Damascus and was made to stand before Yazid ibn Mu’awiyah, he, (Yazid) may Allah condemn him, read this verse: ‘Whatever affliction befalls you is because of what your hands have obtained,’ (42:30) Ali ibn al-Husayn عليه السلام said, ‘This verse is not about us. What applies to us are the words of Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most Holy, ‘Whatever hardships you face on earth and in your souls, were written in the Book before the creation of souls. This is certainly easy for Allah.’” (57:22)
