Arabic text

وقال أبو بصير: سمعت أبا عبد الله عليه السلام يقول: إن رقية بنت رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله لما ماتت قام رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله على قبرها فرفع يده تلقاء السماء ودمعت عيناه فقالوا يا رسول الله انا قد رأيناك رفعت رأسك إلى السماء ودمعت عيناك فقال: انى سألت ربى أن يهب لي رقية من ضمة القبر.

Translation

4.And Abū Baṣīr said, “I heard Abā ʿAbdillāh (a) say, ‘When Ruqayyah the daughter of the Messenger of Allah (ṣ) died, the Messenger of Allah (ṣ) stood next to her grave and raised his hand towards the sky as tears flowed from his eyes. So they (the companions) said, “O Messenger of Allah, we have seen you raising your head towards the sky as tears flowed from your eyes?” So he said, “I asked my Lord to gift me [the exception of] the squeezing of the grave for Ruqayyah.”’”
