*The Messenger of Allah(S.A.W) wept for his Uncle Hamza(R.A). *
The books Tabaqat Ibne Saad, Maghazi of Waqidi and Musnad Ahmed Hanbal mention the following tradition:
After the Battle of Uhud, the Messenger of Allah(S.A.W) passed by a house of Ansars. He heard the wailing of the people for their martyred family members. The eyes of the Messenger of Allah(S.A.W) filled with tears and he began to weep. Then he(S.A.W) said: “But there is no one to weep for Hamza.” When the ladies of the family of Sa’ad bin Muadh and Usayd bin Huzayr al-Ashhal returned they told them to go and weep for Hamza, the uncle of the Prophet (S.A.W). Then from that time to date none of the women of Ansar have wept for their dead ones before weeping upon Hamza(R.A).
The Messenger of Allah(S.A.W) wept for Jafar bin Abi Talib.
A narration recorded in the books of Al Istiab, Usud al-Ghaba, Al Isabah and Ibne Athir etc that:
When Jafar was killed with his companions, the Messenger of Allah(S.A.W) came to his house and summoned his children. Then he consoled them up and there were tears in his eyes. Asma, the wife of Jafar said: May my parents sacrificed for you, you are crying? Shall I tell you about Jafar and his companions? “Yes”, he replied the Messenger of Allah(S.A.W), “I am very sorrowful today.”Then Asma called and the women gathered, and Fatima(S.A) entered weeping and wailing, “O Uncle!”. The Messenger of Allah(S.A.W) said: “A brave one like Jafar deserves to be wept upon.”
The Messenger of Allah(S.A.W) wept for his grandson, Hussain(A.S) on various occasions.
**Tradition of Ummul Fazl:*
The first narration quoted by us is recorded in Mustadrakul Sahihayn, History of Ibne Asakir and Maqtal of Khwarizmi, other books also mention this incident Ummul Fazl the daughter of Harith came to the Messenger of Allah(S.A.W) and said:
“O Messenger of Allah(S.A.W) I had a dream in which I saw that a piece of your flesh flew off and fell into my lap. The Messenger of Allah(S.A.W) told her, “You have seen something good, by the will of Allah, Fatima will give birth to a child and you will be present in the house.”
Later Fatima(S.A) gave birth to Hussain(A.S) and Ummul Fazl was present as the Prophet(S.A.W) had predicted. She placed Hussain(A.S) in the lap of the Prophet(S.A.W), She said: “Thus when I saw the Messenger of Allah(S.A.W) that his eyes were filled with tears. I said, ‘O Messenger of Allah(S.A.W), may my parents be sacrificed for you, why are you weeping?’.
He(S.A.W) replied, ‘Jibraeel (Gabriel) came to me and informed me that my people will soon murder this son of mine.’ I asked, ‘This son?’. ‘Yes’, he(S.A.W) replied, ‘And he gave me the red dust of his grave.’*
Al Hakim says, This is an authentic hadith according to the standards of Bukhari and Muslim but they have not included it in their collections.”
**(2) Tradition of Zainab Binte Jahash:*
A similar type of narration has been presented in the books: Tarikh Ibne Asakir, Majmauz Zawaed, Tarikh Ibne Kathir etc:
Zainab says: One day while Hussain(A.S) was in my house and near me at the staircase, then I became thoughtless. The Messenger of Allah(S.A.W) entered.... He(S.A.W) said, “Let him be (as he is). The Prophet(S.A.W) stretched out his hands while he was performing the prayers and took Hussain(A.S) to him. I said, “O Messenger of Allah(S.A.W) I have never seen you do this before?” He(S.A.W) said, “Jibraeel came to me and informed me that this (Hussain) will be killed by my Ummat.” I requested him, “Then show me the dust of the land where he will be killed.” And he gave me some red earth.
(3)Tradition of Ayesha:
Abi Salma has been recorded in Tarikh Ibne Asakir, Maqtal Khwarizmi and Majmauz Zawaid to have said: Ayesha said: The Messenger of Allah(S.A.W) had seated Hussain(A.S.) upon his thigh when Jibraeel came and asked, “Is this your son?” “Yes”, he replied. Jibraeel said, “But your Ummat will soon kill him after your demise.” The eyes of the Prophet filled with tears. Jibraeel said, “Would you like to see the land where he shall be killed?” “Yes”, he replied. Then Jibraeel showed him the fine dust of his grave.
In another narration there is a variation where Jibraeel is reported to have indicated towards Iraq and took some red dust from it and showed it to him and said, “This is the dust from his fatal battleground.”
*(4)Tradition of Umme Salma: *
Mustadrakul Sahihayn, Tabaqaat Ibne Saad, Tarikh Ibne Asakir and other books have mentioned the following tradition from Umme Salma:
The Messenger of Allah(S.A.W) was sleeping one night when he awoke with a start. He was in a state of terror. Then again he went to sleep and once more woke up with a start. This time he was more worried. Again he went to sleep and woke up. In his hands was some red dust. He was turning it around in his hands. She said, “What is this dust, O Messenger of Allah?” He said, “Jibraeel informed me that this Hussain will be killed in the land of Iraq. I asked Jibraeel to show me the dust of the land where he will be killed. And this is that dust.”*
