 one day he was walking on the streets of kufa he finds a beggar, someone who's begging on the street his question was what is this they told him يا ايمان علي يا امير المؤمنين he is a christian man, he's not a muslim he used to work but now that he's grown older you know he doesn't have a job so that's why he's begging on the street he says you guys worked with him when he was young و لديه انارجي و now that he is older you let him beg on the streets that doesn't happen in my state and he turns to his minister of finance we may call that secretary of finance and he tells him you immediately find him a house and you assign him a monthly salary that will suffice him and his family and notice imam al yasalam did not ask who is this that was the answer he was given he is a christian man but he didn't ask who is this his question was what is this in other words what is this phenomena why do i see a beggar on the street that is something strange that is not something common it's something unique which suggests there were no beggars at the time of imam ali ibn abi qalib no people who were in poverty and when he notices something that looked different it was not something used you know he was used to so he immediately dealt with it he dealt with people justly fairly kindly mercifully and one group of people that he really looked after were the orphans orphans they don't have a father to look after them that's why my brothers and sisters if you guys can sponsor orphans go ahead and do so the time of aid inshallah aid is coming pretty soon many of us alhamdulillah we are blessed with parents who can buy us some gifts on the time of aid they present us with some presents and we celebrate with them but there are millions of children out there unfortunately who've lost their parents or who've lost their father and they don't have anyone to bring them nice clothings they see people celebrating but they don't have which is very painful god forbid but try to put yourself in their shoes imagine you see other people they're wearing nice clothes you're celebrating and you can't afford it and you're still wearing your old clothes if you can help send them aid basket aid present aid gift try to sponsor them even when he was on his deathbed he told imam al-hasan and imam al-hussein الله الله بالايتام take care of the orphans and this message was not for imam حسن امام فزيد thems was was for us imam حسن امام فزيد عليم سلام they don't need to be reminded to take care of the orphans we do so when he was struck and he was brought to his house the orphans of the city of kufa learned that their protector their helper their supporter has been hurt so they gather around his house they gather around his door and they start crying where is our father that's what they used to call him father because he was like a father figured to them he would come to them as i mentioned last night in one of the stories where he would come and feed them himself with his own hands he would play with them he would take care of them he would feed them he would look after them so they felt that he is just like their father so they gathered around his house crying where is our father imam الحسن سلام الله عليه came out he sees all these orphans gathered around his house and he cries and he says go pray for امير المؤمنين سلام الله عليه go make dua that may Allah cure him he's in pain the sword of عبد الرحمن ابن ملجم that struck imam علي ابن ابي طالب was kept poisoned with a very severe poison so imam الحسن and imam الحسين عليه السلام bring a doctor and they tell him can you examine our father امير المؤمنين سلام الله عليه the doctor takes a specific vein from the kidney of a sheep he takes this vein and he inserts it into the wound of امير المؤمنين عليه السلام then he picks it up he looks at it and he starts crying they tell him what is the matter he turns to امام علي عليه السلام and he says يا امير المؤمنين اعهد عهدك وأوسي وصيتك فان ضربت هذا اللعين وصلت إلى ام رأسك says يا امير المؤمنين make your will whatever you wish to say to your family go ahead and say it bid your farewell to them the poison has gone too deep into your body you're not going to survive this one when imam الحسن and imam الحسين heard this they started crying and when the doctor left زيناب عليه السلام came into the room along with his with her sister امه كل ثوم and they both started weeping ايوا ابتاه ايوا عليه who will look after us my father who will look after the children who will look after the orphans he looked at them and he says my dear children do not cry i'm going to a better place i'm going to join your grandfather غسول الله صلى الله عليه و آله and your mother فاطمة عليهم السلام i've invested all these years in pain i lived in pain but now i'm gonna go to جنة ان شاء الله i'm going to paradise where i'll be relaxing one of the companions of imam علي ابن ابي طالب عليه السلام was sitting behind the door when he heard the cries he also started crying imam الحسن came out and said why are you sitting here he said oh son of رسول الله صلى الله عليه و آله please forgive me but i could not leave until i see my master امير المؤمنين سلام الله عليه he says okay let me make way for you imam الحسن goes inside a little while later comes out and says come in he goes in he sees imam علي ابن ابي طالب he says i saw his face so pale so yellow i told him يا امير المؤمنين can i see your wound he said yes he showed me his wound he said يا امير المؤمنين ان شاء الله you will survive this one you fought in major battles you're like the hero of every war that you fought in this is just a minor wound he said no it's not he said soon i'll be leaving you and i'll be joining my beloved رسول الله صلى الله عليه و آله i'm going from this world so the companions started crying the children started crying then he left in a little while later as imam علي ابن ابي طالب was on his deathbed she says يا امير المؤمنين i want to ask you a question but i know you're in a difficult state right now he says go ahead my beloved daughter what question do you want to ask she said i heard the wife of رسول الله صلى الله عليه و آله ام مؤمن saying a tradition that she heard from رسول الله صلى الله عليه و آله the minute he heard this he cried he said what did you hear her saying what did she hear from رسول الله صلى الله عليه و آله she said i heard her saying that she heard رسول الله صلى الله عليه و آله أنه يقول أنه في يوم العشرة إمام الحسين will be all alone in Karbala and he will be killed in Karbala is that true my father I want to ask you is that true إمام أمير المؤمنين cried and he said yes my beloved daughter Zaynab that is true your brother Hussein one day will be all alone in Karbala I will not be there his brother إمام الحسين will not be there no one
