It is narrated that, once, Imam Ali (a) seated his baby al-Abbas on his knees, lifted his hands, kissed them, and wept. Watching this situation, the mother was surprised. Hence, Imam Ali (a) told her about the future of her baby and what would happen to his hands. She as well as the others, wept heavily. After that, the Imam told her about her baby’s great position with Allah, and this relieved her.
