الشيخ عباس القمي 145

* ( فهب لي من لدنك وليا يرثني ويرث من آل يعقوب ) * 51 وقال : * ( أولوا الأرحام بعضهم أولى ببعض في كتاب الله ) * 52 وقال : * ( يوصيكم الله في أولادكم للذكر مثل حظ الأنثيين ) * 53 وقال : * ( إن ترك خيرا الوصية للوالدين والأقربين بالمعروف حقا على المتقين ) * 54 وزعمتم أن لا حظوة 55 لي ولا أرث من أبي ولا رحم بيننا ، أفخصكم الله بآية أخرج منها أبي صلى الله عليه وآله أم هل تقولون عن أهل ملتين لا يتوارثان ولست أنا وأبي من أهل ملة واحدة ؟

“so grant me from Yourself an heir, who shall inherit me and inherit from the House of Jacob”; [51] and He said: “Those of kinship are nearer to one another in the Book of God”; [52] and He said: “God charges you concerning your children: to the male the like of the portion of two females”; [53] and He said: “If he leaves goods, the bequest is for the parents and the near of kin, according to what is right — an obligation upon the God-fearing.” [54] And you claim that I have no standing [55] and no inheritance from my father, and that there is no kinship between us. Has God singled you out with a verse from which He excluded my father, may God bless him and his Family? Or do you say: The people of two religions do not inherit from one another — and am I and my father not of one religion?

أم أنتم أعلم بخصوص القرآن وعمومه من أبي وابن عمي ؟

Or are you more knowing of the particular and the general of the Qur'an than my father and my cousin?

فدونكها مخطومة مرحولة 56 تلقاك يوم حشرك .

Then take it, haltered and saddled; [56] it shall meet you on the day of your gathering.

فنعم الحكم الله والزعيم محمد " صلى الله عليه وآله " والموعد القيامة وعند الساعة ما تخسرون ولا ينفعكم إذ تندمون ولكل نبأ مستقر وسوف تعلمون من يأتيه عذاب يخزيه ويحل عليه عذاب مقيم ، ثم رنت سلام الله عليها بطرفها نحو الأنصار فقالت : يا معشر الفتية وأعضاد الملة وأنصار الإسلام ما هذه الغميزة في حقي والسنة 57 عن ظلامتي ؟ !

And excellent is God as judge, and Muhammad, may God bless him and his Family, as advocate, and the Resurrection as the appointed time. And at the Hour the falsifiers shall lose, and it shall not profit you when you repent. And for every tiding there is a fixed time, and you shall come to know upon whom a punishment comes that disgraces him, and upon whom an abiding punishment descends. Then she turned her glance, the peace of God be upon her, towards the Ansar and said: O company of young men, and arms of the community, and helpers of Islam! What is this slackness concerning my right and this drowsing [57] over my wrong?

أما كان رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله أبي يقول : " المرء يحفظ في ولده " سرعان ما أحدثتم وعجلان ذا إهالة 58 ولكم طاقة بما أحاول وقوة على ما أطلب وأزاول .

Did not the Messenger of God, may God bless him and his Family, my father, say: “A man is guarded in his children”? How swiftly have you brought about a change! And how soon is this fat melted! [58] Yet you have the capacity for what I seek, and the strength for what I ask and pursue.

وساقت سلام الله عليها الخطبة الشريفة إلى قولها : ألا وقد قلت ما قلت على معرفة مني بالجذلة 59 التي خامرتكم والغدرة التي

And she carried the noble sermon on, the peace of God be upon her, to her words: Now, I have said what I have said in full knowledge of the abandonment [59] that has mingled with you and the treachery that
