Arabic hadith text

أَخْبَرَنَا هَارُونُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ عَبْدَةَ، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ لَمَّا تَزَوَّجَ عَلِيٌّ رضى الله عنه فَاطِمَةَ رضى الله عنها قَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏ "‏ أَعْطِهَا شَيْئًا ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ مَا عِنْدِي ‏.‏ قَالَ ‏"‏ فَأَيْنَ دِرْعُكَ الْحُطَمِيَّةُ ‏"‏ ‏.‏

Translation

Harun ibn Ishaq reported to us, from Abdah, from Sa'id, from Ayyub, from Ikrimah, from Ibn Abbas, who said: When Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) married Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her), the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said to him: ‘Give her something.’ He said, ‘I have nothing.’ He said, ‘Then where is your Hutami armor?’

Translation notes
  • This abbreviated version ends with the Prophet’s question about the Hutami armor and does not include Ali’s response or instruction to give it to Fatimah.
