Hadith 347

(The book) ‘Al Kharaij Wa Al Jaraih’, (and) ‘Al Manaqib’ of Ibn Shehr Ashub – Hisham Bin Al Hakam who said, ‘A man from the kings of the people of the mountains used to come to Al-Sadiq-asws during his Hajj every year. Abu Abdullah-asws would lodge him-asws in a house from his-asws houses in Al-Medina, and his Hajj and his lodging was prolonged. So, Abu Abdullah-asws gave him ten thousand Dirhams in order to buy a house for him-asws, and he went out to Hajj. When he was leaving, he said, ‘May I be sacrificed for you-asws! You-asws bought a house for me? ’ He-asws said: ‘Yes’. And he-asws brought him a deed wherein was: ‘In the Name of Allah-azwj the Beneficent, the Merciful! This is what Ja’far-asws Bin Muhammad-asws has bought for so and so, son of so and so Al-Jabaly, but a house for him in Al-Firdows. Its first boundary is Rasool-Allah-saww, and the second boundary is Amir Al-Momineen-asws, and the third boundary is Al-Hassan-asws Bin Ali-asws, and the fourth boundary is Al-Husayn-asws Bin Ali-asws’. When the man read that he said, ‘I am pleased. May Allah-azwj Make me to be sacrificed for you-asws! ’
He (the narrator) said, ‘Abu Abdullah-asws said: ‘I-asws took that wealth and distributed it among the children of Al-Hassan-asws, and Al-Husayn-asws, and hope that Allah-azwj would Accept that and He-azwj would Reward you for it with the Paradise’. He (the narrator) said, ‘The man left to go to his house, and the deed was with him. Then he fell sick with a fatal illness. When the expiry presented to him, he gathered his family and made them swear that they would make the deed to be with him (in his grave). They did that. When it was morning, the people came to his grave and they found deed being on the surface of the grave, and there was written in it: ‘By Allah-azwj! Ja’far-asws Bin Muhammad-asws fulfilled it for me with what he-asws had said’’. [205]
