The Prophet (SAWA) came to me, after I gave birth to Husayn, so I gave him [Husayn ] to him [the Prophet] in a yellow cloth, which he cast aside and wrapped him instead in a white cloth. He then said, 'Fatima take him, he is indeed an Imam and the son of an Imam. He is the father of nine Imams; from his loins will come virtuous Imams, the ninth of whom will be al-Qa'im [the awaited saviour of mankind].'
