I then had enough time to feed my camels before the caravan left.

I then had enough time to feed my camels before the caravan left. I journeyed with the caravan and he -ajfj had prayed for my safety. I did not face any difficulties. All praise belongs to Allah.\u2019 [6] \n The narrator of the Hadith says: \u2018A boil had grown on my upper thigh. I spent money on treatment from several physicians but they said that they did not know of medicine for it. I then wrote a letter to him -ajfj (the twelfth Imam -ajfj ) requesting him -ajfj to pray.

The Imam -ajfj wrote back to me with his -ajfj signature, \u2018May Allah -azwj Grant you good health and place you with us -asws in this life and in the life Hereafter.\u2019 The narrator has said that before the coming of the Friday the boil was gone and it became like the palm of my hand (clean and flawless). I then called one of the physicians and showed him the place of the boil and he said, \u2018We had no knowledge of any medicine to cure it.

[7] \n The narrator of the Hadith says: \u2018A boy was born to me. I wrote to him (Al-Mahdi -ajfj ) for his -ajfj permission to give the baby a special bath for the ceremony on the seventh day of his birth. The answer came back and it said, \u2018Do not do so.\u2019 The boy died on the seventh or the eighth day. I then wrote to him -asws about the death of the boy. The Imam -ajfj wrote back to me, \u2018He will be succeeded by another and another.

Let his name be Ahmad and the name for the one after Ahmad will be Ja\u2019far.\u2019 It came to be as he -ajfj had said. \n \u2018The narrator has said, \u2018Once I made preparation for the journey to Hajj, said farewell to (my) people and I was about to leave.

The message came to me that said, \u2018We do not like it but it is up to you.\u2019 I felt depressed and sad and I wrote, \u2018I am steadfast to obey your commands and listen to your words except that I feel sad for missing Hajj.\u2019 The Imam -ajfj then had signed (a note to me) that said, \u2018Do not be depressed. You will soon perform Hajj by the will of Allah -azwj .\u2019 The next year I wrote to ask his -asws permission and the permission came.

I then wrote that I had chosen Muhammad ibn al-\u2019Abbass as a ride sharing partner and that I trusted him for his religion and safety. The message that then came said, \u2018Al-Asadi is a good ride sharing partner.
