moments she still managed to prepare food. The Beloved and Blessed Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم then arrived and the food was served. The very same moment, Angel Jibrāīl عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلَام came and said, ‘Yā Rasūlallāĥ (صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم)! Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ has commanded you to order Jābir (رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ) to bring his children so that they may also be privileged to eat food with you.’ The Noble Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم ordered Sayyidunā Jābir رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ to bring his children. Sayyidunā Jābir رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ immediately went and asked his wife as to where the children were. She asked him to inform the Holy Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم that the children were not present.
Rasūlullāĥ صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم insisted that the children be immediately brought as it was the command of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ. Sayyidunā Jābir’s bereaved wife burst into tears informing him that she could no longer bring the children. Sayyidunā Jābir رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ asked, ‘What is the matter? Why are you weeping?’ Taking him inside, his wife informed him of the calamity that had befallen them lifting the cloth to uncover the dead bodies of their children. Seeing this, Sayyidunā Jābir رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ also began to weep. Hence Sayyidunā Jābir رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ placed both the corpses of his children before the Prophet of Raḥmaĥ صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم. The voice of weeping people began to emanate from the house. Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ sent Angel Jibrāīl عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلَام stating, ‘O Jibrāīl! Inform my Beloved [Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم] that his Rab عَزَّوَجَلَّ states; O My Beloved [Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم]! You make Du’ā and I will resurrect them.’ Hence the Prophet
