Hadith.5455 - Muhammad ibn Ahmad Al-Ashari narrated from Al-Sindi ibn Muhammad from Yunus ibn Yaʿqub from Abu Maryam, who narrated from his father: Umamah bint Abi Al-Aṣ - whose mother was Zaynab, the daughter of the Messenger of Allah (swt) (peace be upon him and his family) - was married to Imam Ali ibn Abi Ṭalib (as) after Sayyida Faṭimah {s.a} (passed away). After the martyrdom of Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib (as), Al-Mughirah ibn Al-Nawfal married her. It was narrated that
she became severely ill until her tongue became paralyzed. Imam Hasan ibn Ali (as) and Imam Hussain ibn Ali (as), the sons of Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib (as), came to her while she was unable to speak. They (as) began asking her, while Al-Mughirah disapproved. They (as) asked: "Did you emancipate so-and-so and his family?" She nodded her head in agreement. They (as) continued: "And this and that?" She again nodded her head in affirmation but could not speak clearly. Her gestures were accepted as valid in confirming her wishes.
5455 - وَ رَوَى مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ اَلْأَشْعَرِيُّ عَنِ اَلسِّنْدِيِّ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ يُونُسَ بْنِ يَعْقُوبَ عَنْ أَبِي مَرْيَمَ ذَكَرَهُ عَنْ أَبِيهِ
أَنَّ أُمَامَةَ بِنْتَ أَبِي اَلْعَاصِ وَ أُمُّهَا زَيْنَبُ بِنْتُ رَسُولِ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ كَانَتْ تَحْتَ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ بَعْدَ فَاطِمَةَ عَلَيْهَا اَلسَّلاَمُ فَخَلَفَ عَلَيْهَا بَعْدَ عَلِيٍّ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ اَلْمُغِيرَةُ بْنُ اَلنَّوْفَلِ فَذَكَرَ أَنَّهَا وَجِعَتْ وَجَعاً شَدِيداً حَتَّى اُعْتُقِلَ لِسَانُهَا فَجَاءَهَا اَلْحَسَنُ وَ اَلْحُسَيْنُ اِبْنَا عَلِيٍّ عَلَيْهِمُ اَلسَّلاَمُ وَ هِيَ لاَ تَسْتَطِيعُ اَلْكَلاَمَ فَجَعَلاَ يَقُولاَنِ لَهَا وَ اَلْمُغِيرَةُ كَارِهٌ لِذَلِكَ "أَعْتَقْتِ فُلاَناً وَ أَهْلَهُ" فَجَعَلَتْ تُشِيرُ بِرَأْسِهَا نَعَمْ "وَ كَذَا وَ كَذَا" فَجَعَلَتْ تُشِيرُ بِرَأْسِهَا أَنْ نَعَمْ لاَ تُفْصِحُ بِالْكَلاَمِ فَأَجَازَ ذَلِكَ لَهَا.
