Every soul shall reap what it did earn So take what you will, or leave it to burn!" شَخْصٌ عَزِيزٌ عَلَى الإسْلامِ مَصْرَعُهُ يَا قَبْرَهُ أَنْتَ قَبْرٌ قَدْ تَضَمَّنَهُ فَخْراً فَإنَّكَ مَغْبُوطٌ بَجُثَّتِهَ فِي رَحْمَةِ اللهِ مَغْمُورٌ وَمَغْمُوسُ حِلْمٌ وَعِلْمٌ وَتَطْهِيرٌ وَتَقْدِيسُ وَبِالمَلائِكَةِ الأَبْرَارِ مَحْرُوسُ 2- حَدَّثَنا الحاكِم أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الحُسَين بن أَحمَد البيهقي قالَ حَدَّثَني مُحَمَّد بن يحيى الصولي قالَ حَدَّثَني هارون بن عَبدُ اللَّه المهلبي قالَ حَدَّثَني دعبل بن عَلِيٍّ قالَ جَاءَنِي خَبَرُ مَوْتِ الرِّضَا عَلَيْهِ السَّلامُ وَأَنَا بِقُمَّ فَقُلْتُ قَصِيدَتِيَ الرَّائِيَّةَ: أَرَى أُمَيَّةَ مَعْذُورِينَ إِنْ قَتَلُوا أَوْلادُ حَرْبٍ وَمَرْوَانٍ وَأُسْرَتُهُمْ قَوْمٌ قَتَلْتُمْ عَلَى الإسْلامِ أَوَّلَهُمْ اَرْبِعْ بِطُوسٍ عَلَى قَبْرِ الزَّكِيِّ بِهِ قَبْرَانِ فَي طُوسَ خَيْرِ النّاسِ كُلِّهَمُ مَايَنْفَعُ الرِّجْسَ مِنْ قُرْبِ الزَّكِيِّ وَمَا هَيْهَاتَ كُلُّ امْرِئٍ رَهْنٌ بِمَا كَسَبَتْ وَلا أَرَى لِبَنِي الْعَبَّاسِ مِنْ عُذُرِ بَنُو مَعِيطٍ وُلاةُ الْحِقْدِ وَالوَغَرِ حَتَّى إذَا اسْتَمْكُنُوا جَازُوا عَلَى الْكُفُرِ إِنْ كُنتَ تَرْبَعُ مِنْ دِينٍ عَلَى فَطَرِ وَقَبْرِ شَرِّهِمُ هَذَا مِنَ الْعِبَرِ عَلَى الزَّكِيِّ بِقُرْبِ الرِّجْسِ مِنْ ضَرَرِ لَهُ يَدَاهُ فَخُذْ مَا شِئْتَ أَوْ فَذَرِ Al-Sowli narrated that Oun ibn Muhammad said that Mansoor ibn Talha recited poems that he quoted on the authority of Abu Muhammad al-Yazidi who had said, “When Ar-Ridha’ (a.s.) passed away, I recited an elegy for him as follows: What is wrong with Toos - may God not sanctify it Which seizes a precious one each day.
It began with Rashid when it grabbed him. Then it seconded it with Ar-Ridha’ Ali ibn Musa Not a regular leader was he, Rather a noble Imam - like the other ones. And the felicity of time turned into misfortunes!” I also found the following verses in Muhammad ibn Habib Dhabbi’s book: In Toos there is a tomb in which there lies an Imam Divine Whom we are enjoined to go visit his shrine. The tomb where Paradise is set up from early in the morning And is constantly granted greetings and peace.
A tomb whose radiating rays illuminate the blind And its ashes[^4] treat ailments. A tomb portraying Muhammad in the eyes And his Trustee for by-standing believers The eyes are humble to this all Due to the amazement in their thoughts deep within A tomb in which those who reach at its region Their sins are unloaded from them when they depart.
