25. The Favor of Imam Husain (a.s.) upon elegy poets

A poet was composing an elegy for Imam Husain (a.s.) and wrote this hemistich (half-line):

“When his body fell upon the land of Karbala…”

But nothing came to his mind for the second hemistich.

That night, in a dream, Lady Zahra (peace be upon her) told him:

“Why do you not complete your poem?”

He replied:

“May my parents be sacrificed for you! I could not find anything appropriate to say.”

She instructed him:

“Say: ‘Its shroud was woven from the shimmering rays of the sun.’”
