“Sayyid Muhammad ibn Abi Zaid ibn Arabshah Al-Husaini Al-Alawi Al-Waramini narrated, which reads in Arabic: When the Messenger of God (s) was made to travel by night, he came to a tree that bore many apples. So he plucked an apple from it. When he was about to eat it, he ate half of it, while the other half flew away and disappeared. God created from the half of this apple Dhu l-Fiqar and from its half, which the Messenger of God (s.) ate, the drop of Fatimah (a.). When Ali (a.) arrived home, he heard the conversation of Fatimah (a.). So he asked her: “Who are you talking to?” Then she replied: “With my brother Dhu l-Fiqar.” [Al-Mawsu’at-ul-Kubra, vol. 2, p. 33]
