عليها السلام على بابها ، فقالت : لا عهد لي بقوم حضروا أسوء محضرا منكم تركتم رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله جنازة بين أيدينا ، وقطعتم أمركم بينكم لم تستأمرونا ولم تردوا لنا حقا ، فأتى عمر أبا بكر فقال له : ألا تأخذ هذا المتخلف عنك بالبيعة ، فقال أبو بكر لقنفذ وهو مولى له : إذهب فادع لي عليا ، قال : فذهب إلى علي فقال له ما حاجتك ؟

peace be upon her, at her door and said: I have no knowledge of a people present of worse presence than you. You left the Messenger of God, may God bless him and his Family, a corpse before us, and you settled your affair among yourselves; you did not consult us, and you did not restore to us any right. So 'Umar came to Abu Bakr and said to him: Will you not take this man who has held back from you to the pledge? Abu Bakr said to Qunfudh, a freedman of his: Go and call 'Ali to me. He said: So he went to 'Ali and said to him: What do you want?

فقال : يدعوك خليفة رسول الله ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) ! ! !

He said: The deputy of the Messenger of God, may God bless him and his Family, summons you!

فقال علي عليه السلام لسريع ما كذبتم على رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله ، فرجع ، فأبلغ الرسالة قال : فبكى أبو بكر طويلا ! ! !

'Ali, peace be upon him, said: How swiftly you have lied against the Messenger of God, may God bless him and his Family! So he returned and delivered the message. He said: And Abu Bakr wept a long while.

فقال عمر الثانية : أن لا تمهل هذا المتخلف عنك بالبيعة ، فقال أبو بكر رضي الله عنه لقنفذ : عد إليه فقل له : أمير المؤمنين 3 يدعوك لتبايع ، فجائه قنفذ ، فأدى ما أمر به ، فرفع علي " عليه السلام " صوته فقال : سبحان الله لقد ادعى ما ليس له ، فرجع القنفذ فأدى الرسالة 4 ، فبكى أبو بكر طويلا ! ! !

Then 'Umar said a second time: Do not give this man who has held back from you any respite from the pledge. So Abu Bakr, may God be pleased with him, said to Qunfudh: Go back to him and say to him: The Commander of the Faithful [3] summons you, that you may pledge. So Qunfudh came to him and delivered what he had been ordered. And 'Ali, peace be upon him, raised his voice and said: Glory be to God! He has claimed what is not his. So Qunfudh went back and delivered the message [4], and Abu Bakr wept a long while.

ثم قام عمر فمشى مع جماعة حتى أتوا باب فاطمة ، فدقوا الباب فلما سمعت أصواتهم نادت بأعلى صوتها : يا أبت يا رسول الله ماذا لقينا بعدك من ابن الخطاب وابن أبي قحافة .

Then 'Umar rose and walked with a company until they came to the door of Fatima, and they knocked at the door. When she heard their voices she called out at the top of her voice: O my father, O Messenger of God! What have we met after you from the son of al-Khattab and the son of Abi Quhafa!

فلما سمع القوم صوتها وبكائها ، انصرفوا باكين ، وكادت قلوبهم تتصدع وأكبادهم تنفطر ، وبقي عمر ومعه قوم فأخرجوا عليا فمضوا به إلى أبي بكر ، فقالوا له : بايع فقال : إن أنا لم أفعل فمه قالوا : إذا والله الذي لا إله إلا هو نضرب عنقك قال : إذا تقتلون عبد الله وأخا رسوله ، قال عمر : أما عبد الله فنعم ! !

When the people heard her voice and her weeping, they turned away weeping, and their hearts were near to splitting and their livers to bursting. And 'Umar remained, and with him a company; and they brought 'Ali out and went with him to Abu Bakr, and said to him: Pledge. He said: And if I do not, what then? They said: Then, by God beside whom there is no god, we shall strike off your head. He said: Then you would be killing the servant of God and the brother of His Messenger. 'Umar said: As for the servant of God, yes;

وأما أخو رسوله فلا ، وأبو بكر ساكت لا يتكلم ، فقال عمر : ألا تأمر فيه بأمرك ؟

but as for the brother of His Messenger, no. And Abu Bakr was silent and did not speak. 'Umar said: Will you not give your command concerning him?

فقال : لا أكرهه على شئ ما كانت فاطمة إلى جنبه .

He said: I will not compel him to anything so long as Fatima is at his side.

فلحق علي " عليه السلام " بقبر رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله يصيح ويبكي وينادي : " يا بن أم إن القوم استضعفوني وكادوا يقتلونني " ، فقال عمر لأبي بكر : انطلق

So 'Ali, peace be upon him, betook himself to the grave of the Messenger of God, may God bless him and his Family, crying out and weeping and calling: “Son of my mother, the people held me weak and were near to killing me.” And 'Umar said to Abu Bakr: Go with us
