41. Al-Maqdisi al-Ardabili has said, “... `Omer in person hit her on her stomach, and his slave whipped her on her shoulder. That was the reason for her miscarriage.”42
 
42. In a letter from `Omer to Mu`awiyah, the first admits the following: “And her pain of childbirth intensified. I entered the house, so she miscarried a son whom Ali called Muhassan.”43
 
43. Al-Saduq has transmitted from some mentors the following explanation of the Prophet ‘s statement to Ali (A.S.) wherein he said, “There is a treasure for you in Paradise”: “This treasure is his son al-Muhassan, the one whom Fatima (A.S.) miscarried when she was squeezed between both doors.”44
 
44. In a narrative from Imam al-Sadiq (A.S.), he said, “... And she was beaten even while being pregnant... and she miscarried because of such beating... The first in whose regard a judgment will be issued shall be Muhassan son of Ali (A.S.) against his killer, then against Qunfath.”45
 
45. In another narrative from Imam al-Sadiq (A.S.), he says, “He kicked her in the stomach, hence the miscarriage of Muhassan.” The same narrative also says, “And he kicked the door with his foot till he hit her stomach, and she was six months pregnant with al-Muhassan, causing her to miscarry.” It also states: “... and she was beaten, and her fetus was killed inside her womb... Due to the kick, she suffered from childbirth, and when he slammed the door, she miscarried Muhassan... And Muhassan shall come [on the Day of Judgment] carried by [his grandmother] Khadija daughter of Khuwaylid and Fatima daughter of Asad... The one unjustly killed (referred to in 81:8 of the Holy Qur’an) is, by Allah, Muhassan...”46
 
46. In another tradition from Imam al-Sadiq (A.S.), he says, “And the killing of Muhassan with that kick is surely a greater [sin] and more bitter.”47

49. In a narrative transmitted by al-Daylami about al-Zahra’ (A.S.), she is quoted as having said, “... And he kicked the door with his foot, slamming it on me, and I was pregnant, so I fell on my face... And childbirth overcame me, so I miscarried Muhassan who was killed without having committed any crime.”50

50. Imam al-Hasan (A.S.), addressing al-Mugharah, has said to the latter, “You are the one who hit Fatima (A.S.) daughter of the Messenger of Allah (A.S.) till you caused her to bleed and to miscarry what she had in her womb, thus humiliating the Messenger of Allah (A.S.)..., etc.”51
 
51. Imam al-Baqir (A.S.) has said, “And she was big with Muhassan. When the Messenger of Allah (A.S.) passed away, and when the folks forced their way into her house, taking her cousin, the Commander of the Faithful (A.S.), out by force, and when she was harmed by that man (`Omer ibn al-Khattab), she miscarried a boy..., etc.”52
