It is narrated from Hazrat Thawban (may Allah be pleased with him) that when the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) set out on a journey, the last person from his family whom he would meet was Hazrat Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her), and when he returned from a journey, the first person he would visit was also Hazrat Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her). Once, the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) returned from a battle and, as usual, went to Hazrat Fatimah’s (may Allah be pleased with her) house. When he arrived, he saw a curtain at the door of the house and silver bangles on the hands of Hasan and Husain (may Allah be pleased with them). The Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) turned back without entering the house. Hazrat Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her) realized that the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had turned back after seeing these things, so she tore the curtain and broke the bangles off the children’s hands. The two children began to cry and, while crying, went to the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). The Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) took the bangles—which Hazrat Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her) had given to them—and said to Hazrat Thawban (may Allah be pleased with him): O Thawban! Take these to the house of so-and-so (referring to a family among the people of Madinah) and buy a Yemeni necklace and two ivory bangles for Fatimah, for these people are my Ahl al-Bayt, and I do not want them to consume their good things in this world, even if they are lawful.
