Ibn abu ‘Umayr has narrated from Mansur ibn Hazim from Abu ‘Abdillah (a.s.) who has said the following: “Isma’il is called the truthful in his promises; he promised a man to meet him at a certain place and Isma’il waited for him at that place for one year. Thus, Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most Holy, named him the truthful in his promise.

The Imam then said, ‘The man then came at that place and Isma’il said to him, “I am still waiting for you.’”” حسن - Allamah Baqir al-Majlisi (Mirʾāt al-ʿUqūl fī Sharḥ Akhbār Āl al-Rasūl (8/184))
