Report of Abu Ubaid (224 A.H.) about the attack on the house of revelation and martyrdom of Lady Zahra (sa)

Abu Ubaid Qasim bin Salam (d. 224 A.H.), who is considered a reliable Islamic jurist, has narrated from Abdur Rahman bin Auf in the book of Al-Amwal:

I visited Abu Bakr in his terminal illness. After preliminaries, he said: I regret having committed three acts and not doing three things, and I also should have asked about three things for the Messenger of Allah (s)…one of the three thing, which I should not have done, is that if only I had not committed that act and had not done it in this and that way. [Alas, if I had not trespassed on the sanctity of the house of Fatima and had not attacked her place][1]…I am not inclined to mention the statement of Abu Bakr…[2]
