Fatimatuz-Zahra, the daughter of the Prophet (s), peace be on them, is to have thus related ( an event ) :
دَخَلَ عَلَيَّ أَبِي رَسُولُ اللّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ فِي بَعْضِ الاْيَّامِ فَقالَ:

My father, the Prophet (s) of Allah, came to my house one day and said to me:

“Peace be on you, Fatimah”
فَقُلْتُ: عَلَيْكَ السَّلامُ

“By Him who rightfully appointed me a Prophet
وَاصْطَفَانِي بِالرِّسالَةِ نَجِيّاً
was’-tafaanee bir-risaalati najee-ya
and chose me a Messenger for the salvation of the mankind,
مَا ذُكِرَ خَبَرُنا هذَا فِي مَحْفِلٍ مِنْ مَحَافِلِ أَهْلِ الاْرْضِ
ma d’ukira khabarunaa haad’aa fee mah’-falim-mim-mah’aafili ah-lil ar-z’i
whenever and wherever an assembly
وَفِيهِ جَمْعٌ مِنْ شِيعَتِنا وَمُحِبِّينا
wa fee-hi jam-u’m-min shee-a’tinaa wa muh’ib-bee-naa
our followers and friends mentions this event,
وَفِيهِمْ مَهْمُومٌ إِلاَّ وَفَرَّجَ اللّهُ هَمَّهُ
wa fee-him mah-moo-mun il-laa wa far-rajal-laaho ham-mahoo
there shall remain none grieved but Allah will remove his grief,
وَلاَ مَغْمُومٌ إِلاَّ وَكَشَفَ اللّهُ غَمَّهُ
walaa magh-moo-mun il-laa wa kashafal-laaho gham-mahoo
there shall remain none distressed but Allah will dispel his distress,
وَلاَ طالِبُ حاجَةٍ إِلاَّ وَقَضَى اللّهُ حاجَتَهُ.
wa laa t’aalibu h’aajatin il-laa wa qaz’al-laaho h’aajatah
there shall remain none wish-seeker but Allah will grant his wish.”
فَقالَ عَلِيٌّ عَلَيْهِ السَّلامُ: إِذن وَاللّه فُزْنا وَسُعِدْنا وَكَذلِكَ شِيعَتُنا
faqaala a’lee-yun a’lay-his-salaamu id’aaw-wal-laahi fuz-naa wa sui’d-naa wa kad’aalika shee-atunaa
`Ali, peace be upon him, said, “Then, we have won and attained pleasure. I swear it by Allah. So have our adherents;
فازُوا وَسُعِدُوا فِي الدُّنْيا وَالاْخِرَةِ وَرَبِّ الْكَعْبَةِ.
faazoo wa sui’doo fid-dunyaa wal aaakhirati wa rab-bil-kaa’-bah
they have won and attained pleasure in this world and in the Hereafter. I swear it by the Lord of the Ka`bah.”
اَللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَىٰ مُحَمَّدٍ وَآلِ مُحَمَّدٍ
allahumma salli ala muhammadin wa ali muhammad
O’ Allāh send Your blessings on Muhammad and the family of Muhammad.
