When Yazeed says following verses:
I wish my forefather at badr had witnessed
How the khazraj by the thorn annoyed,
They would have Glorified and Unified Allah
Then they would make tahleel and say in elation:
"May your hands, o Yazid, never be paralyzed:"
We have killed the master of their chiefs
And equated it with badr, and it was so, indeed
Hashim played with the dominion so indeed
No news came, nor was there a revelation revealed.
I do not belong to khandaf of I do not
Seek revenge from Ahmed's children
For what he to us had done.
She reacted to these lines and said the followings:
All Praise is due to Allah, Lord of the Worlds. Allah has blessed His Messenger and all his messenger's progeny. Allah, Glory to him, has said the truth when he said," Then the end those who committed evil was that they disbelieved in Allah's sings and they were ridiculing them."(Quran, 30:10) Do you, O Yazid, think that when you blocked all the avenues before us, so we were driven as captives, that we are light in the sight of ALLAH and that you are superior to us? Or is it because you enjoy with Him a great status, so you look down at us and become arrogant elated, when you see the world submissive to you and things are done as you want them, and when our authority and power became all yours? But wait! Have you forgotten that Allah has said," Do not regards those who disbelieved that we grant them good for themselves? We only give them a respite so that they may increase their sins, and for them there is a humiliating torment"(Qura'n 3:178)? Is it fair, O son of taleeq, that you keep your free as well as slave women in there in their chambers and at the same time drive the daughter of the messenger of Allah as captive with their veils removed and faces exposed, taken by their enemies from one land to an other, being viewed those at watering places as well as those who man your forts with their faces exposed to the looks of every one near or distant, lowly or honorable, having non of their protectors with them nor any of their men? But when can be expected from one whose mouths chewed the livers of the purified ones and whose flesh grows out of the blood of the martyrs? How can it be expected that one who looks at us with grudge and animosity, with hatred and malice, would not hate us we Ahle bait (a.s)? Besides you with out feeling any guilt or weighing heavily what you say, you recite saying:
"Then they would make tehleel and say in elation: May your hands, O yazid never be paralyzed!"
How dare you hits the lips of Abu-Abdullah, the Master of youth of paradise? But why should you not do so, since you stirred a wound that almost healed, and since all mercy is removed from your heart, having shed the blood of the offspring of the Muhammad peace and blessing of Allah be upon him and his progeny, and the stars on the earth from among the family of Abu-muttlib? Then you cite your mentors as of you speak to them… soon shall you be lodged with them, and soon shall you wish you were paralyzed and muted and never said what you said or did what you did. O Allah! Take what belong to us out of his hands, seek revenge against all those who oppressed us, and let your Wrath descend upon whoever shed our blood and killed our protectors! By Allah! You have burnt only your own skin! You have cut only your own flesh! You shall come face to face with the Messenger of Allah, peace of Allah be upon him his Progeny, bearing the burden of blood which you have shed, the blood of his offspring, and of his sanctities which you violated, the sanctities of his women, his kinsfolk, his flesh and blood, when Allah gathers then together and seek equity on their behalf. "And do not reckon those who are slain in the Way of Allah as dead. Nay! They are living with their Lord, receiving their sustenance"(Qura'n 3:169). Allah suffices you as your judge and Muhammad, peace and blessing of Allah be upon him and his progeny, as your opponent, and Gabriel as your foe. All those who instigated you to do what you did and who put you in charge so that you might play havoc with the lives of the Muslims, how evil the end of the oppressors is and which of you shall have the worst place and will be the least protected? Although calamities has forced me to speak to you, I nevertheless see you small in my eyes and find your verbal attack great, and I regard your rebuke too much bear, but these eyes are tearful, and the chests are filled with depression. What is even stranger is that taleeq party Satan is killing the honored party of Allah. Such hands are dripping with our blood; such mouths are feeding on our flesh, while those scared and pure corpses are offered as food to the wild beast of the desert and are dirtied by the brutes. If you regard us as your booty, you shall soon find us as your opponents, that will be when you find nothing but what your hands had committed, and your Lord never treats His servants unjustly. To Allah is my complaint, and upon Him do I rely. So scheme what ever you wish to scheme, and carry out your plots, and intensify your efforts, for by Allah, you shall never be able to kill our inspiration, nor will your shame never be washed away. Your view shall be proven futile, your days numbered, and your wealth wasted on the Day when caller calls out, "The curse of Allah is upon the oppressors" (Qura'n 11:18). All praise is due to Allah, Lord of the world, who sealed the life of our early ones with happiness and forgiveness, and that of our last with martyrdom and mercy. We plead to Allah to complete His rewards for then and grant them am increase and make succession good for us; he is the most Merciful, the most Compassionate. Allah suffices us, and how great He is!
