On Ramadan the fifteenth, year 3 A.H., the first child of Ali and Fatima (PBUT) was born. Lady Fatima asked Imam Ali to choose a name for the child but the Imam said that he would never do so before the Prophet. Then they took the child to the Prophet Mohammad (PBUH&HP) and the Prophet asked Ali (PBUH) about the name of the child; Imam Ali said that he would never take precedence over the Prophet, and the Prophet said he would never, over Allah.
Allah informed the angel Gabriel that a child was born to Ali and Fatima (PBUT); Allah commanded Gabriel to go to the Prophet and deliver His Salaam and Felicitations to him and tell him that Ali's position to the Prophet was as Haaroon's(Aaron) to Moses [Haroon was Moses's brother & minister]. In this manner, Allah commanded the Prophet to name Ali's child the same name as Haaroon's first son. Shobar was the name of Haaroon's older son; Shobar is a Hebrew name and its Arabic translation is Hassan. This is how the name of Ali's and Fatima's first born became Hassan (PBUH).
We offer our most sincere felicitations to all who love and obey Mohammad and his progeny (PBUH&HP) on this everlasting occasion.
