I said...

I said, \u2018I seek Refuge with Allah -azwj from opposing you -asws in any matter, O my Master -asws !\u2019 \n Harsama said, \u2018Then I went out crying, grieving. I did not cease to be like the seed upon a plate. No one knew what was within me except Allah -azwj the Exalted. Then Al-Mamoun summoned me, so I entered to see him. I did not cease to be standing until the day rose.

Then Al-Mamoun said, \u2018Go, O Harsama, to Abu Al-Hassan -asws and convey the greetings from me, and say to him -asws , \u2018Either come to us or we shall come to you -asws !\u2019 If he -asws says to you: \u2018But we -asws shall go to him\u2019, then ask him -asws on my behalf to bring that forward\u2019. \n He said, \u2018I went to him -asws . When I emerged to him -asws , he -asws said to me: \u2018O Harsama!

Haven\u2019t you memorised what I -asws had bequeathed to you with?\u2019 I said, \u2018Yes\u2019. He -asws said: \u2018Bring my -asws slippers forward, for I -asws know what he has sent you with\u2019. \n He (the narrator) said, \u2018I brought his -asws slippers forward and he -asws walked to him.

When he -asws entered the gathering, Al-Mamoun stood up to him -asws standing and hugged him -asws and kissed between his -asws eyes and seated him -asws to his side upon his throne and faced towards him -asws discussing with him -asws for a long time from the day. Then he said to one of his slaves, \u2018Bring the grapes and the pomegranates!\u2019 \n Harsama said, \u2018When I heard that, I had not capacity to be patient, and I saw the trembling to have presented in my body.

I disliked for that to be manifested in me, so I returned backwards until I went out and threw myself in a place from the house. When it was near to midday, I sensed my Master -asws to have come out from his presence and return to his -asws house. \n Then I saw the commander to have come out from the presence of Al-Mamoun with presenting the doctors and the companions.

I said, \u2018What is this (going on)?\u2019 It was said to me, \u2018An illness has presented to Abu Al-Hassan Ali -asws Bin Musa Al-Reza -asws \u2019. The people were in doubt, and I was upon certainty due to what I had known from it. \n He (the narrator) said, \u2018When it was from the second third of the night, there was a loud shout, and I heard the noise from the house.
