   *naa'm qad ad'intu lak*\
   you are granted the permission"

90. فَدَخَلَ جَبْرائِيلُ مَعَنا تَحْتَ الْكِساءِ\
   *fadakhala jib-raaa-ee-lu maa'naa tah'-tal-kisaaa-i*\
   So, Gabriel entered the cloak with us

91. فَقالَ لاِبِي: إِنَّ اللّهَ قَدْ أَوْحَى إِلَيْكُمْ يَقُولُ:\
   *faqaala li-abee : in-nal-laaha qad aw-h'aaa ilay-kum yaqoolu :*\
   and said to my father : Allah sends His Revelations to you;

92. إِنَّمَا يُرِيدُ اللّهُ لِيُذْهِبَ عَنْكُمُ الرِّجْسَ\
   *in-namaa yuree-dul-laahoo li-yud'-hiba a'nkumur-rij-sa*\
   "Truly Allah's desire is to keep you away from impurity (and flaws),

93. أَهْلَ الْبَيْتِ وَيُطَهِّرَكُمْ تَطْهِيراً.\
   *ah-lal-bay-ti wa yutah-hirakum tat-heera*\
   O People of Household (Ahl al-Bayt) and keep you thoroughly purified"

94. فَقالَ عَلِيٌّ لاِبِي: يَا رَسُولَ اللّه أَخْبِرْنِي مَا لِجُلُوسِنا\
   *faqaala a'lee-yul li-abee : yaa rasoolal-laahi akh-bir-nee maa lijuloosinaa*\
   Then Ali said to my father : "O Prophet (s) of Allah, tell me

95. هذَا تَحْتَ الْكِساءِ مِنَ الْفَضْلِ عِنْدَ اللّهُ\
   *haad'aa tah'-tal-kisaaa-i minal-faz'-li i'ndal-laah*\
   what significance has Allah given for getting together underneath this cloak ?"

96. فَقالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ:\
   *faqaalan-nabee-yu s'al-lal-laaho a'lay-hi wa aaalihi:*\
   The Prophet (s) replied :

97. وَالَّذِي بَعَثَنِي بِالْحَقِّ نَبِيَّاً\
   *wal-lad'ee baa'thanee bi-h'aq-qi nabee-*\
   "By Him who rightfully appointed me a Prophet (s)

98. وَاصْطَفانِي بِالرِّسالَةِ نَجِيّاً\
   *yaw-was'-tafaanee bir-risaalati naj-jeea*\
   and chose me a Messenger for the salvation of the mankind.

99. مَا ذُكِرَ خَبَرُنا هذَا فِي مَحْفِلٍ مِنْ مَحافِلِ\
   *maa d'ukira khabarunaa haad'aa fee mah'-falim-mim-mah'aafili*\
   whenever and wherever an assembly

100. أَهْلِ الاْرْضِ وَفِيهِ جَمْعٌ مِنْ شِيعَتِنا وَمُحِّبِينا\
   *ah-lil-ar-z'i wa fee-hi jam-u'm-min shee-a'tinaa wa muh'-ib-bee-naa*\
   of our followers and friends mention this event,

101. إِلاَّ وَنَزَلَتْ عَلَيْهِمُ الرَّحْمَةُ\
   *il-laa wa nazalat a'lay-himur-rah'-mah*\
   Allah will bestow on them His Blessings and Mercy;

102. وَحَفَّتْ بِهِمُ الْمَلائِكَةُ وَاسْتَغْفَرَتْ لَهُمْ إِلى أَنْ يَتَفَرَّقُوا.\
   *wa h'af-fat bihimu lamalaaa-ikah was-tagh-farat lahum ilaaa ay-yatafar-raqoo*\
   angels will encircle them asking Allah the remission of their sins until the assembly disperses

103. فَقالَ عَلِيٌّ عَلَيْهِ السَّلامُ: إِذنْ وَاللّهِ فُزْنَا وَفازَ شِيعَتُنا وَرَبِّ الْكَعْبَةِ.\
   *faqaala a'lee-yun a'lay-his-salaamu : id'aw-wal-laahi fuz-naa wa faaza shee-a'tunaa wa rab-bil-kaa'-bah*\
   So Ali said : "Truly, by the Lord of Kabaa! we and our followers are the winners"

104. فَقالَ أَبِي رَسُولُ اللّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ:\
   *faqaala abee rasoolul-laahi s'al-lal-laaho a'lay-hi wa aaalihi:*\
   Then my father replied :

105. يَا عَلِيُّ وَالَّذِي بَعَثَنِي بِالْحَقِّ نَبِيّاً\
   *yaa a'lee-yu wal-lad'ee baa'thanee bil-h'aq-qi nabee-yaw*\
   "By Him who rightfully appointed me a Prophet

106. وَاصْطَفَانِي بِالرِّسالَةِ نَجِيّاً\
   *was'-tafaanee bir-risaalati najee-ya*\
   and chose me a Messenger for the salvation of the mankind,

107. 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

108. 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,

109. 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,

110. 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,

111. 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."

112. 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;

113. 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."

114. 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.
