Fatimah Az-Zahra

Bismi-llahi ar-rahmani ar-rahimi, In the name of God, Most Gracious, Most Merciful. And I beg for forgiveness from Allah for whatever sin that I have done in the past and to show me the right path. Ameen.

Assalamualaikum / Greetings dear readers. I would like to share a story obtained from an ipod touch application named mbook pack. Insya'Allah

One day, Rasulullah S.A.W entered to visit his daughter Fathimah R.Ha. He found his daughter grinding syair wheat with a hand grinder made of stone. Rasulullah S.A.W asked his daughter, "What makes you cry Fathimah? I hope Allah S.W.T does not make you cry."
Fathimah said, "This grinder and all household affairs are the ones that make me cry"
Rasulullah sat beside his daughter, while Fathimah continued, "Father, can you asked my husband to go find a helper to complete the wheat grinding and other household chores?" Hearing his daughter's request, Rasulullah rose, took a few strands of syair wheat with his blessed and noble hands, and put them in the grinder while saying, "Bismillahirrahmanirrahim" (In the name of Allah the compassionate and giving). With persmission from Allah S.W.T the grinder moved by itself, and continued grinding the wheat strand by strand. Rasulullah praised to Allah in many different languages until all the wheat grain was completely ground.

Rasulullah S.A.W said to the grinder, "By Allah's permission, you can stop grinding"
Allah S.W.T permitted the grinder to speak fluently in Arabic, and it said, "Dear Rasul, by Allah who created you with all truth as His envoys and prophet, if you asked me to grind from Masyriq to Maghrib (dusk to dawn), so I will. I have read Allah's revelation that said:
'Hey faithful ones, protect yourselves and your families from fiery hell whose fuel was made of humans and stones, whose guards are rough angels who are disciplined and obey His every command'
Therefore I fear that I will become one of the stones in hell"
Rasulullah S.A.W then said to the grinder, "Be joyful, as you will be one of the stones that decorate Fathimah's throne in heaven." The grinder was very happy, as it quit his task.

Rasulullah S.A.W enlightened his daughter, "If Allah wishes, the grinder will do the task for you, but Allah wants some of your good deeds to be written, and some of your mistakes to be redeemed. Dear Fathimah, any woman who grinds wheat to flour for her husband and children, Allah S.W.T promises her to have every grain worth one degree of increase in her goodness."

Dear Fathimah, any woman who sweats by grinding the wheat for her husband, Allah S.W.T will put seven trenches between her and the hell. Dear Fathimah, any woman who tends and puts clothes to her children will have rewards equal to feeding a thousand of starving people, and dressing a thousand naked people. Dear Fathimah, any woman who obstructs the needs of her neighbors will be prevented from drinking from the lake Kautsar.

Dear Fathimah, more importantly is your husband's contentment, for he will not pray for you if he is not pleased. Know the fact that husband's contentment is Allah's, and husbands rage is also Allah's. Dear Fathimah, if a woman is pregnant, angels will istighfar (ask forgiveness) for the unborn, Allah will note down a thousand of goodness, and erase a thousand of mistakes. When she suffers during labor, Allah S.W.T notes down rewards of those who fight in Allah's way (jihad). When she gives birth, her sins will be erased as clean as the day she was born. Should she die during labor, she will be cleaned of her sins, and her grave will be a garden of the gardens of Eden, and Allah S.W.T will bestow upon her rewards of a thousand hajj pilgrimages and a thousand of Umrah's, and the a thousand angels will ask for forgiveness for her (istighfar) every single day until the end of time.

Any woman who duly serves her husband faithfully and unconditionally, Allah will forgive all her sins, put green dresses and reward a thousand rewards for every strand of hair in her body, and Allah will bestow upon her rewards of one thousand hajj pilgrimages and a thousand of Umrah's. Dear Fathimah, any woman who smiles for her husband, Allah S.W.T will look upon her with blessings. Dear Fathimah, any woman who provides comfort, or beautify the house, the angels will shout, "Continue your kindness, and Allah forgives some of your previous sins, and some of your future sins." Dear Fathimah, any woman who grooms her husband, trimming his hair, moustache and beard, and clipping his fingernails, Allah will allow her to drink from the rivers of heaven. Allah S.W.T will also relieve her dying (sakratul maut), and make her grave as garden from the gardens of Eden, save her from fiery hell, and save her from the Shirat bridge (crossing of hell).

If there's any error, I'm open for rectification. None is perfect as perfection only belongs to Allah (God Almighty). All good things come from Allah and all the bad things are from my side and the side of Shaiytan the accursed.
