٤- عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ ابْنِ فَضَّالٍ عَنْ يُونُسَ بْنِ يَعْقُوبَ عَنْ سَعِيدَةَ قَالَتْ بَعَثَنِي أَبُو الْحَسَنِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) إِلَى امْرَأَةٍ مِنْ آلِ زُبَيْرٍ لأنْظُرَ إِلَيْهَا أَرَادَ أَنْ يَتَزَوَّجَهَا فَلَمَّا دَخَلْتُ عَلَيْهَا حَدَّثَتْنِي هُنَيْئَةً ثُمَّ قَالَتْ أَدْنِي الْمِصْبَاحَ فَأَدْنَيْتُهُ لَهَا قَالَتْ سَعِيدَةُ فَنَظَرْتُ إِلَيْهَا وَكَانَ مَعَ سَعِيدَةَ غَيْرُهَا فَقَالَتْ أَرَضِيتُنَّ قَالَ فَتَزَوَّجَهَا أَبُو الْحَسَنِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) فَكَانَتْ عِنْدَهُ حَتَّى مَاتَ عَنْهَا فَلَمَّا بَلَغَ ذَلِكَ جَوَارِيَهُ جَعَلْنَ يَأْخُذْنَ بِأَرْدَانِهِ وَثِيَابِهِ وَهُوَ سَاكِتٌ يَضْحَكُ وَلا يَقُولُ لَهُنَّ شَيْئاً فَذُكِرَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ مَا شَيْ‏ءٌ مِثْلَ الْحَرَائِرِ.
4. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from ibn Faddal from Yunus ibn Ya’qub from Sa‘idah who has said the following: “Abu al-Hassan, ‘Alayhi al-Salam, sent me to a woman of the Zubayr family to see her because he wanted to marry her. When I went to her she spoke to me softly and then said, ‘Bring the lamp closer to me.’ I took it close to her. Sa‘idah has said, ‘I looked at her - there was someone else with Sa‘idah also - and asked if she agreed.’ He (the narrator) has said that abu al-Hassan, ‘Alayhi al-Salam, married her and she lived with him (the Imam) until he (the Imam) died. When his slave-girls learned about it (this marriage) they began to hold his sleeves and clothes and he remained quiet, smiled and did not say anything to them. It is mentioned that he (the Imam) said, ‘No other thing is like free women.’”
