Hadith 149

(The book) ‘Al Kharaij Wa Al Jaraih’ – It is reported that Ali Bin Abu Hamza said, ‘Abu Al-Hassan-asws had sent me regarding a need. I came (back) and there was Moattib at the door. I said, ‘My Master-asws is more knowing with my place’. Moattib entered and a woman passed by me. I said, ‘Had Moattib not entered, and let my Master-asws know of my place, I would have followed this woman and enjoyed with her’. Moattib came out and said, ‘Enter! ’ I entered to see him-asws and he-asws was upon a prayer mat, under it was a pillow. He-asws extended his-asws hand and extracted a pouch from under the pillow and gave it to me and said: ‘Catch up with the woman for she should be at the feed store saying, ‘O servant of Allah-azwj, withhold me! ’ I said, ‘Me? ’ She said, ‘Yes’. I went with her and enjoyed with her’’. [164]
