Al-Nafaqa 'ala al-'IyalIbn Abi al-Dunya

273 – Muḥammad ibn Nuṣayr ibn al-Walīd narrated to me; al-Asmaʿī told us, from Maʿmar—known as Ṣāḥib al-Banāt (“the man with daughters”)—who said: “I saw al-Ḥasan bouncing his little son and chanting:

Lord, do not hasten his appointed end
until I behold his nuptial tent erected;
inside it a gentle, cheerful young bride—
a Berber woman, destined to bear him sons.”

٢٧٣ - حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ نُصَيْرِ بْنِ الْوَلِيدِ، حَدَّثَنَا الْأَصْمَعِيُّ، عَنْ مَعْمَرٍ صَاحِبِ الْبَنَاتِ قَالَ: رَأَيْتُ الْحَسَنَ يُرَقِّصُ ابْنَهُ وَيَقُولُ: « [البحر الرجز] يَا رَبِّ لَا تُعَجِّلْ بِهِ الْمَنِيَّةْ ... حَتَّى أَرَى قُبَّتَهُ مَبْنِيَّةْ فِيهَا فَتَاةٌ طِفْلَةٌ هَنِيَّةْ ... وَلَّادَةُ الْغِلْمَانِ بَرْبَرِيَّةْ»
