119. The Complaint of Hazrat ʿAlī Aṣghar (a.s.) to the Late Kirmānshāhī

Shaykh ʿAbd al-Raḥīm Kirmānshāhī, the ancestor of the noble Kirmānshāhī family, in the final moments of his life, requested an apple from his children. They searched all over Kirmānshāh but could not find one and returned empty-handed—only to see that there was already an apple in front of their father.

They asked, “Where did this apple come from?” He replied: “After you left, the Prophet (ṣallā Allāhu ʿalayhi wa ālih), Amīr al-Muʾminīn (a.s.), Hazrat Fāṭimah (ʿalayhā al-salām), and Imām Husain (a.s.) came to my bedside. Imām Husain (ʿa) graciously handed me this apple and said:

‘This was sent to you by my son ʿAlī Aṣghar. He complains: Why did you not write about my tragedies in your book of martyrdom (maqtal)?’”

I replied, “The only reason is that whenever I tried to write about his afflictions, I wept so much that my writings were erased.”

Then he advised his children to have his maqtal published, for it had evidently received the attention of the Imām.

This account was narrated by the respected preacher Āqā-ye Sharīʿatī on the night of Monday, 6/8/87 (27 Shawwāl 1429 AH), from the pulpit.
