Hadith 101

(The book) ‘Rijal’ of Al Kashy – Hamdawiya, from Abu Saeed Al Adamy, from Muhammad Bin Marzuban, from Muhammad Bin Sinan who said, ‘I complained to Al-Reza-asws of eye pain. He-asws took a paper and wrote to Abu Ja’far-asws, and he-asws was smaller than my hand, and he-asws handed the letter to the servant and instructed me to go with him and said: ‘Conceal! ’ I came to him-asws, and a servant was carrying him-asws. He (the narrator) said, ‘The servant opened the letter in front of Abu Ja’far-asws’. He (the narrator) said, ‘Abu Ja’far-asws went on to look into the letter, and he-asws raised his-asws head towards the sky and say: ‘Rescue! ’ He-asws did that repeatedly. Every pain in my eye went away and I became with a vision which not one could visualise. He (the narrator) said, ‘I said to Abu Ja’far-asws, ‘May Allah-azwj Make you-asws a Sheykh upon this community just as He-azwj Made Isa Ibn Maryam-as a Sheykh upon the children of Israel’. He (the narrator) said, ‘Then I said to him-asws, ‘O one resembling the companion of Futrus! ’
He (the narrator) said, ‘I left, and Al-Reza-asws had instructed me to conceal. I did not cease to be of healthy vision until I broadcast what had happened from Abu Ja’far-asws regarding the matter of my eyes. The pain returned to me’. He (the narrator) said, ‘I said to Muhammad Bin Sinan, ‘What did you mean by your words, ‘O one resembling the companion of Futrus’? ’’
He (the narrator) said, ‘He said, ‘Allah-azwj was Wrathful upon an Angel from the Angels call Futrus. He-azwj Crushed his wings and had him thrown with in an island from the islands of the sea. When Al-Husayn-asws was blessed (to his-asws parents-asws), Allah-azwj Sent (Angels) to Muhammad-saww in order to congratulate him-saww of the arrival of Al-Husayn-asws. And Jibraeel-as was a friend of Futrus. He-as passed by and he was in the island, cast away. He-as informed him with the arrival of Al-Husayn-asws and what Allah-azwj had Commanded with, and he-as, ‘Is it okay for you if I-as were to carry you upon a wing from my wings and go with you to Muhammad-saww, so he-saww may intercede for you? ’ Futrus said to him-as, ‘Yes’. He-as carried him upon a wing from his-as wings until he-as came with him to Muhammad-saww. He-as delivered to him-saww the congratulations of his-saww Lord-azwj, then narrated to him-saww the story of Futrus. Muhammad-saww said to Futrus: ‘Wipe your wings with the cradle of Al-Husayn-asws, and wipe with him-asws’. Futrus did that. Allah-azwj Corrected (Restored) his wings and Returned him to his (former) status with the Angels’’. [118]
