Hadith 212

d the existence of the things when nothing resembles Him-azwj nor does He-azwj resemble anything’’. [70] Muhammad Bin Al Rayyan Bin Al Salt who said, ‘I wrote to Abu Al-Hassan-asws seeking his-asws permission in plotting against an enemy and it was not possible to plot against him. He-asws forbade me from that and said some words its meaning was: ‘You shall be sufficed of him’. By Allah-azwj! I was sufficed of him with excellent sufficing. He was disgraced, and impoverished, and he died in the evilest state of the people in his world and his religion’’. [71]
Ali Bin Muhammad Al Hajjal said, ‘I wrote to Abu Al-Hassan-asws, ‘I am in your-asws service and an illness has afflicted me in my left. I am not able in getting up and the standing with what is obligated. If you-asws view fit, you-asws could supplicate to Allah-azwj to remove my illness and assist me upon the standing with what is obligated upon me, and repaying the entrustments regarding that, and to Make me to be in my deficiency to be from without deliberation, and wasting what I do not intend to forget my current afflictions, and amplify upon me, and supplicate for me with to be affirmed upon His-azwj religion which He-azwj had Chosen for His-azwj Prophet-saww’. He-asws wrote: ‘May Allah-azwj Remove from you and your father’. He (the narrator) said, ‘And there was an illness with my father, and I had not written in it. He-asws had supplicated for him-asws, initiating’’. [72]
And from Dawood Al Zareer who said, ‘I intended going out to Makkah, so I bade farewell to Abu Al-Hassan-asws in the evening, and I went out. The cameleer refused that night, and I in the morning I came to bid farewell to the grave, and there was his-asws messenger summoning me. I went to him-asws and I was embarrassed, and I said, ‘May I be sacrificed for you-asws! The cameleer stayed behind in the evening’. He-asws smiled and instructed me with things and a lot of needs. He-asws said: ‘How are you saying? ’ I could memorise the likes of it. He-asws said to me: ‘So ink the pen! And write: ‘In the Name of Allah-azwj the Beneficent’, you shall remember, if Allah-azwj so Desires, and the affairs are in your hands’. I smiled. He-asws said to me: ‘What is the matter with you? ’ I said to him-asws, ‘Good’. He-asws said: ‘Inform me-asws’. I said to him-asws, ‘I remembered a Hadeeth a man from our companions had narrated to me that your-asws grandfather-asws Al-Reza-asws, was such that whenever he-asws instructed with his-asws need, would write: ‘In the Name of Allah-azwj the Beneficent, the Merciful’. I shall be remembering if Allah-azwj so Desires’. He-asws smiled and said: ‘O Dawood! If I-asws were to say to you that the neglecter of the Taqiyyah (dissimulation) is like the neglecter of the Salat, I-asws would be truthful’’. [73]
