English translation
5361. Narrated 'Ali: Fāṭima عليها السلام went to the Prophet ﷺ complaining about her sufferings and hurts from the stone hand mill on her hands. She heard that the Prophet ﷺ had received a few slave girls. But (when she came there) she did not find him, so she mentioned her problem to 'Aishah. When the Prophet ﷺ came, 'Aishah informed him about that. 'Ali added: So the Prophet ﷺ came to us when we had gone to bed. We wanted to get up (on his arrival) but he said, "Stay where you are." Then he came and sat between me and her and I felt the coldness of his feet on my abdomen. He said, "Shall I direct you to something better than what you have requested? When you go to bed say 'Subhān Allāh' thirty-three times, 'Alḥamdulillāh' thirty-three times, and 'Allāhu Akbar' thirty-four times, for that is better for you than a servant."
