The boy -asws came to him and then he said: “Go back.

The boy -asws came to him and then he said: “Go back.” The boy -asws went back. Then he said: “I swear by the One in Whose hand is my life, (that I see) manners as the manners of Rasool Allah -saww .

O (little) boy -asws , what is your name?” He -asws replied: “My -asws name is Muhammad -asws Ibn Ali -asws Ibn al-Hussain -asws .” Jabir came forward and began to kiss his -asws head and say: “May I be sacrificed for you, Rasool Allah -saww , your great-great grandfather -saww , told me to convey his -saww greetings of peace to you -asws and would speak of all that (I see in you -asws ).”’ The Imam -asws has said: ‘Then Imam Muhammad -asws Ibn Ali -asws Ibn Al-Hussain came to his father -asws and he -asws was anxious.

He -asws explained to him -asws about Jabir. His father -asws asked: “Did Jabir really do this?” He -asws replied: “Yes, he did so.” The Imam -asws said: “My son -asws , stay at home (and do not expose yourself -asws to the enemy).” Jabir thereafter would come to him -asws in the mornings and in the evenings and the people of Madina would say: “It is so strange that Jabir, the only surviving companion of Rasool Allah -saww , comes to a boy -asws on both ends of the day every day.” Very shortly, Imam Ali -asws Ibn Al-Hussain -asws passed away (was martyred).

Imam Muhammad -asws Ibn Ali -asws then normally went to visit Jabir out of respect for his being a companion of Rasool Allah -saww and spoke to people from Allah -azwj .’ [3] Abu Basir once asked from Imam Mohammed Baqir -asws : ‘Are you the heir of the Rasool Allah -saww ’?’ He -asws said: ‘Yes, we -asws (Ahl Al-Bayt) are his -saww heir.’ He then asked: ‘Was Rasool Allah -saww the heir of the prophets -as and did he -saww know all that they -as knew?’ The Imam -asws (the 5 th Imam -asws ) said: ‘Yes, it is true.’ He then asked: ‘Do you -asws have the power to bring the dead back to life and cure the lepers, and the blind?’ He -asws said: ‘Yes, we do have such powers by the permission of Allah -azwj .’ Then he -asws said to me: ‘Come closer to me, O Abu Mohammed.’ He went closer to the Imam -asws and he -asws rubbed his face eyes and he saw the Sun, the Skies, the Earth, the houses and all things in the town.
