Shiavault - a Vault of Shia Islamic Books The Book of Occultation His Miracles Manifested and Some Narratives of His Emissaries 1- Al-Ghaiba of Sheikh Tusi: ‘Ali Ibn al-Husain Ibn ‘Ali Ibn Bābawaiy says, A congregation of my compatriots who were in Baghdad in the year in which the Karamathians raided the pilgrims of Mecca, and that is the year in which meteoroids fell, narrated that my father (a.s) wrote to the Sheikh Abu al-Qāsim al-Husain Ibn Rūh, may Allah sanctify his tomb, seeking permission to go for Hajj.

The answer came, “Do not go in this year.” My father returned a reply, saying, “It is an obligatory pledge. Is it permissible for me not to go?” The answer came, “If you must perform, then be in the last caravan.” My father traveled with the last caravan and his life was saved. All the people in other caravans that were ahead of him were killed.

2- Al-Ghaiba of Sheikh Tusi: Abu Ja‘far al-Marwazi says, Ja‘far Ibn Muhammad Ibn ‘Omar and a number of others came to the ‘Askar and were there in the days when Abu Muhammad (a.s) was alive. Amongst them was ‘Ali Ibn Ahmad Ibn Tanīn. Ja‘far Ibn Muhammad Ibn ‘Omar wrote a letter asking permission to enter the tomb. ‘Ali Ibn Ahmad said to him, “Do not write my name.

I am not seeking permission.” Ja‘far Ibn Muhammad did not write his name and the reply came, “Enter you and the one who did not seek permission.” 3- Al-Kharā’ij wa al-Jarā’ih: It has been narrated from Lady Hakīma: I entered upon Abu Muhammad (a.s) forty days after the delivery of Narjis. I saw our master the Patron of the Age, walking in the house. I have never seen a tongue as eloquent as his.

Abu Muhammad (a.s) smiled and said, “We the congregation of the Imams grow in a day as others grow in a year.” She said, I later asked Abu Muhammad about him. He said, “We entrusted him to the one the mother of Moses entrusted her son to.” 4- Al-Kharā’ij wa al-Jarā’ih: It has been narrated from Muhammad Ibn Hārūn al-Hamdāni: I owed five hundred dinārs as religious dues for which I was very uneasy. Then I said to myself, I have stores which I had bought for five hundred and thirty dinārs.
