as well as those of Ahmad, Ishaq, Baqī ibn Makhlad, Ibn Jarīr al-Tabarī, Muhammad ibn Aslam al-Tūsī, Ibn Abī Hātim, Abū Bakr ibn al-Mundhir, and other eminent scholars who enjoy an honorable reputation in Islam (1). Their commentaries contain the transmitted reports relied upon in Quranic exegesis.

One such proof is that Ali married Fatima only in Medina and did not consummate the marriage until after the Battle of Badr, as has been authentically established. Al-Hasan and al-Husayn were born thereafter, in the year 3 or 4 AH. There is unanimous agreement that Ali married Fatima only in Medina and that none of his children was born anywhere but Medina.

For this reason, [it is said:] (4) that the Prophet (5)—may Allah bless him and grant him peace—would recite it together with “Alif-Lām-Mīm: The Revelation” (6)
